How Old Doe Yak materializes in the busy brain of the cartoonist, and walks right into the picture, adding to the gaiety of nations, is shown most amusingly. After the page is drawn Doc Yak becomes animated, pours gasoline into his tank, cranks up and whirls off in a cloud of smoke. There is only one Doc Yak, and Sidney Smith is his creator, general director and faithful delineator. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
