Mail Early for Christmas

1959 1 min English NR
Wubly rating 5.7 IMDb rating 5.3

In this pre-Christmas reminder to mail early, filmmaker Norman McLaren used an electric vibra-drill to engrave the images on black film, and included the occasional "subliminal" burst of lettering, which he hand-scratched on a few frames.
