MoMA title card states "circa 1924." 500 Running time of Buried treasure: approximately 7 minutes (257 feet). 500 "Climax Fables presents "Buried Treasure" featuring Eveready Harton."--Opening titles. 500 Authorship attributed to Max Fleischer, Paul Terry, and the Mutt and Jeff Studio, though the cartoon was produced anonymously. 500 "Buried treasure was reputedly made after hours at a major animation studio in the mid-twenties and circulated privately. Its sharp graphics, clever wit, and unusual instructional value earn it an important place in the history of animation and in the annals of social criticism."--Preface intertitle card, apparently supplied by MoMA Flim Library. 500 "The first porno-cartoon was made in New York. It was called "Eveready Harton" and was made in the late 20's, silent, of course--by three studios. Each one did a section of it without telling the other studios what they were doing. Studio A finished the first part and gave the last drawing to Studio B [...] Involved were Max Fleischer, Paul Terry and the Mutt and Jeff studio. They didn't see the finished product till the night of the big show. A couple of guys who were there tell me the laughter almost blew the top off the hotel where they were screening it."- -Karl F.
