Columbia Workshop- Wilbur The Psycho Neurotic Car. (retro328).
Columbia Workshop - Wilbur The Psycho Neurotic Car. (retro328).
From an unknown date, probably in the 1950's, comes an oddball comedy about an automobile with a mental condition. A barnyard is the scene where a junker of a jalopy is dumped off. The barnyard animals all voice their opinions of the intrusion. Wilbur, the old clunker also has a few words to say about his condition, and is more than just a little defensive and self conscious over his situation.
The barnyard animals just don't understand the needs and sinsitivities of a modern, complex piece of machinery that makes up a car. The lack of proper attention seems to be driving Wilbur into a state of being psycho neurotic. He's jumpy and irritable. What can be done to settle his nerves? Clarence the duck knows, but will anybody listen to him?
