Coach for Cinderella, A

Coach for Cinderella, A

Coach for Cinderella, A, an archival ephemeral film in the Prelinger Archives collection.

WHY IT’S INTERESTING

Imaginative cartoon that breaks down the parts and features of a Chevrolet automobile into units that can be understood in terms of plant and animal life: caterpillars roll into circles and become automobile tires; in the "visible V-6" fireflies equal spark plugs and mice provide motive power. Naturally, tells part of the Cinderella story, too. Animation supervisor thought to be Frank Goldman.
