About Betty Boop: Betty Boop and Grampy (1935)
Betty Boop and Grampy is a 1935 Fleischer Studios animated short film starring Betty Boop. The short features Grampy in his first appearance.
Betty receives an invitation to a party from her elderly relative, Grampy. As she strolls along singing "I'm On My Way to Grampy's", she is joined by two moving men, a fireman and a traffic cop—all who irresponsibly drop everything (including a piano, a burning house and a traffic jam) to go to Grampy's party. Grampy is an eccentric inventor, whose labor-saving devices are of the Rube Goldberg variety. For example, he has a device that moves his entire house to the front entrance whenever the doorbell is rung.
