Porky the Fireman premiered

June 4, 1938

Another extremely funny Warner Bros. Cartoon, Porky the Fireman, was released on this date.

The director, Frank Tashlin, is one of the few directors to successfully make the transition from animation to live-action, noted especially for his work with Jerry Lewis. Tashlin never made a picture that couldn’t be slotted firmly into the genre of comedy.
