Synopsis
Color remake of Fleischer's Customers Wanted in which Popeye and Bluto compete for Wimpy's patronage in their respective nostalgic penny arcades. Popeye and Bluto run competing movie flicker peep-show arcades. With customers scarce, they both seize on Wimpy as a customer. Dragging Wimpy from one arcade to the other, they each "loan" Wimpy a penny to watch the flickering adventures of Popeye in scenes from his past cartoons.
