| | GAC Forums - Cartoons on Radio, or "Goofy the Horse"? |
 | | This particular broadcast was allegedly in response to a request from an army mule to pay tribute to the animals in the service: cavalry horses, canine corps, carrier pigeons, mascots, etc. Thus, for this episode, a parade of cartoon animals from both Disney and Warner appear. |
 | | The episode would be notable for that alone, but this particular excerpt (the second sketch in the show) features an appearance by one "Goofy Horsecollar," played by Pinto Colvig (who by this point was at best, only sporadically used as Goofy at Disney, having had something of a falling out with Walt years prior). |
 | | The name, of course, recalls our pal Horace, but the personality is pure Goofy, albeit a Goofy who whinnies and makes jokes about mares and "flat hooves," allegedly having just finished a run in the cavalry corps. |
