One of the first and most famous sex symbols on the animated screen, Betty Boop was an irresistible package of playful sexuality, made even more endearing by her absolute childlike innocence. She represented the unsinkable American spirit in the heart of the Great Depression, and endures as a pop culture icon today — favored by children and adults alike. Betty Boop: The Essential Collection, Volume 4 is comprised of thirteen animated shorts: Stopping the Show (1932), Snow White (1933, featuring Cab Calloway), Parade of the Wooden Soldiers (1934), She Wronged Him Right (1934), Red Hot Mamma (1934), Poor Cinderella (1934, in color), There’s Something About a Soldier (1934), When My Ship Comes In (1934), Zula Hula (1937), Riding the Rails (1938), The Swing School (1938), Pudgy the Watchman (1938), Sally Swing (1938).
