Felix the Cat (1919-1936)

==Summary==
Felix the Cat is one of the earliest animated cartoon characters known to man. It is disputed as to whether Felix is created by Pat Sullivan or Otto Messmer, the lead animator of the series. This profile focuses on Felix from the classic shorts, which ran from 1919 when he was known as "Master Tom" until 1936 with the very short-lived Van Buren revival.
