Duck Pimples

Duck Pimples is Released

Listening to scary radio stories on a dark and stormy night is enough to give anyone goose pimples, or in the case of Donald Duck, Duck Pimples, as is the name of the featurette released on this date in 1945. This 59th Donald Duck cartoon short features an abstract storyline in which Donald’s imagination gets the best of him, and apparitions of characters from books and radio all come to life, including a hot iron salesman named Leslie J. Clark, author J. Harold King and pearl thief H. U. Hennessy, all references to members of the Disney animation staff.
