Bumble Ardy, Maurice Sendak and Jim Henson, 1970
Maurice Sendak? Jim Henson? Ken Nordine?

Idea Man, Jim Henson, 196?
How about another Jim Henson short?
Like the earlier post, this is from the "early 1960s." If anyone knows an exact year, feel free to tell me.

Cat and Mouse, Jim Henson, 196?
Today would have been the great, great, great Jim Henson's 75th birthday. He's not known for his animation, but he did animate -
Caught in the act!
In observance, I present a stylish early animated short Cat and Mouse.

The Severed Stream, Chris Mars, 2005
Question why a villain is villainized, a victim martyred. Ask why a group is demonized, and the motives for control. See for yourself what the truth looks like in your hands. Dig it up and hold it for a while. This work you see, it’s my Truth. But please don’t take my word for it.

La Linea #157: Sexilinea, Osvaldo Cavandoli, 1978
La Linea was a long running series of short cartoons, made for TV, by cartoonist Osvaldo Cavanoldi. They're spare, well conceived, and quite funny.
You might remember seeing them on The Great Space Coaster. If you're old like me.
Though this episode was made for TV, it's still NSFW, due to assorted bouncy bits.
Edited to close my tag. Apparently if I don't close the "i" tag it italicizes everything.
Maybe it's because this is Italian.
