Synopsis for the Theatrical Short The Clown's Pup

Max Fleischer draws the Clown in outline from the waist up. The clown reached over and grabs a line to his left, and attaching it, creating his legs. Once he is filled in, the Clown and Max argue for a while, and The Clown's pants drop, revealing some "frilly," woman's-style underwear and skinny bird legs. To this The Clown complains, "You call this good art?"

Max then draws a round, porcelain pug dog, and the Clown draws another one just like it. The dogs get into a fight, which is resolved before returning to the inkwell.
