Trolley Troubles premiered

September 5, 1927
Walt Disney’s Trolley Troubles, first appearance of Oswald the Lucky Rabbit cartoons, debuted on this date.

Walt Disney and Ub Iwerks worked for Universal Pictures on this cartoon. Universal showed their appreciation for the two for making Oswald a star by threatening to cut their salaries. As a result, the two walked…and soon created Mickey Mouse and the rest is history.
