The Vanishing Duck
Directed by Joseph Barbera, William Hanna
Produced by MGM Cartoon Studio
A lighthearted Tom and Jerry cartoon where a mischievous duckling and Jerry use invisibility to outwit Tom's predatory schemes.
George gives Joan a baby duck for her birthday. While they are out celebrating, Tom goes after the duck, but his plans are thwarted when it (and, later, Jerry) finds a jar of vanishing cream and uses it to get even.
