Meet the [[Oswald the Lucky Rabbit]] of [[Looney Tunes]], ''Bosko, The Talk-Ink Kid'', the original, all but forgotten debut cartoon character of Leon Schlesinger's animation studio for Warner Bros during [[The Golden Age of Animation]]. Created by ex-Disney employees [[Harman and Ising|Hugh Harman and Rudolph Ising]], Bosko is, as his name tells, a "[[Punny Name|talk-ink kid]]" -- or more specifically, an inkblot blackface character. His first appearance was in the short pilot "Bosko The Talk-Ink Kid" in 1929, and was noteworthy for being one of the earliest cartoons to feature properly synchronized sound and dialogue in a cartoon. However, his official theatrical debut (the pilot was never shown to the public) was in the original 1930 [[Looney Tunes]] short ''[[Sinkin in The Bathtub]]''.
