Production notes
This was an attempt to create a new character like Betty Boop based on the emerging swing music style. Unfortunately, the character never caught on.
Sally Swing bears some resemblance to Betty Grable.
A former child performer, Rose Marie is best known as Sally Rogers on the 1960s sitcom "The Dick Van Dyke Show."

Sally Swing
This was an attempt to introduce a new character to replace Betty Boop and capitalize on the Swing Music style that was emerging. Although a good idea, her design is rather ordinary, and her voice does not project enough personality. If Sally only had the appearance of Tex Avery's Sexy girls in his 1940s MGM cartoons, this character might have clicked. As a whole, it was a nicely mounted short to introduce a new character. Too bad she wasn't given a chance for further development.
