Here is another one of those classic retro movie shorts that warn folks about hazards in the world. This time the problem is gasoline - and not just because it is expensive!Informative - shocking - and yes amusing at times in a dark way. This is a nice peek into the culture of the day.
More Dangerous then Dynamite is simply about cleaning your clothes with Gasoline! Apparently this was quite common in the 1950's, after all, the "Reputable Dry Cleaning Company" use it, so why can't you?? Ahh, but the Dry Cleaning company has safeguards in place! Like Steam windows! Doors! Blankets to cover dead bodies with and to drag them out! (yes, that IS shown). Mother doesn't have ANY of these precautions, so BOOM! Up goes the house, and well, mom too, as she's running out of the house with animated flames on her dress! (actually, the animation is quite interestingly cartoonish).
Several versions and formats to choose from!
