Popeye the Sailor
by Elzie Crisler Segar
Several early Popeye cartoons had plots that might only be explained by time travel, such
as meeting Sindbad (played by Bluto) in a sixteen minute 1936 cartoon. However, for me,
the real time travelin’ began in the 1960s television cartoon when the Professor had a
time machine. Here’s a list of episodes which I know of that might be explained by time
travel. Send me others that you spot!
Huck-huck-huck-huck. There ain’t no such thing as pirates, Olive. They’re only a
fragamentation of the imagamentation.
