Bosko is an animated cartoon character created by Hugh Harman and Rudy Ising in 1927 and the first recurring character in the Leon Schlesinger cartoon series Looney Tunes. "Although Harman and Ising based Bosko's looks on Felix the Cat, Bosko, like Mickey, got his personality from the blackface characters of the minstrel and vaudeville shows popular in the 1930s. Whereas Disney masked Mickey by making him a mouse, Harman and Ising made Bosko a genuine black boy. Keeping with the stereotypes of the minstrel shows, Bosko is a natural at singing, dancing, and playing any instrument he encounters." (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bosko). He is a curious and lively boy who finds a (musical) solution to every problem, accompanied by his girlfriend Honey and his dog Bruno. The plots are generally weak though. Some Bosko cartoons found on the Internet weren't included in this collection.
