Koo Koo Korrespondance Skool is another gem from the Educational Pictures comedy shorts, showcasing the quirky charm of Jefferson Machamer, known for his comic strip artistry. The film has this playful, almost whimsical atmosphere, as Machamer dives into the world of drawing through a correspondence school. The pacing is brisk, keeping you engaged as he hilariously navigates his makeshift desk in a post office. The practical effects, while simple, add a certain charm to the comedic situations he finds himself in. The performances are enthusiastic, and there's a genuine light-heartedness that permeates throughout, making it a curious little piece from the late '30s.
Koo Koo Korrespondance Skool remains a bit elusive in collector circles, primarily due to the nature of Educational Pictures' distribution methods. Its scarcity is notable, with few prints circulating among enthusiasts, making it an interesting piece for those focused on the era's comedic shorts. Collectors tend to appreciate its unique blend of humor and the historical context of correspondence schooling, as well as Machamer's distinctive style that sets it apart from other educational shorts from the time.
