Yes, it does seem to be quite old.  It of course had many of DICK Tracy's
villains (or spoofs thereof; I'm not a Dick Tracy expert): Flattop, Pickle-Puss,
Snake-eyes, Neon-Noodle, etc.  I think these villains were drawn to incorporate
what their names suggested, though I can't remember specifics.

*I'd* like to know if anyone remembers the cartoon where Elmer Fudd (or was it
Porky Pig?) was hunting the last dodo.  It had strange characters and scenes
that made you think the illustrators had dropped acid before drawing it!  At
one point the Warner Brothers logo (the sort-of heart-shaped shield with "WB"
inside it) moved in straight at the viewer from the horizon, then disappeared
somehow.
