The Riveter is Released

In the Donald Duck cartoon short The Riveter, released in theaters on this day in 1940, evil Pete, this time a construction foreman, fires a pig who is a riveter, and Donald Duck quickly applies for the job. Inexperienced, Donald soon has problems with the riveting gun, causing all kinds of high-rise havoc. Although silly and slapstick, one might say this cartoon short is quite riveting.
