Errors

  • For some reason, every time Silky is in the crooks car, his trench coat is colored brown instead of white, only is his trench coat colored correctly when he's not in the car.
  • If Hokey is shown to read newspapers in previous and later shorts, then wouldn't he find the article on the Moanin' Liza being stolen from the beginning?
