In a Bind (Johnsonverse)

In a Bind is a 1926 American animated short cartoon written, animated, and directed by Gerald Jankowski. The first cartoon in Johnson Studios' Johnsontoons series, this cartoon follows a dog named Darrell, who has to save his family from the clutches of an evil cat named Creighton.
Production began in June 1925. Then-Johnson Industries CEO Jeffrey P. Johnson hired Jankowski, then a local mural painter, to create a short cartoon for the fledgling Johnson Cartoon Studios division. It was one of the first Johnson Studios productions to use sound recordings. Released on March 19, 1926, the cartoon was critically acclaimed for its animation work, its music and voice acting. It was re-released with sound and additional new animation in 1929, and was remade in full color in 1936.
