Page Miss Glory (sometimes called Miss Glory to prevent confusion with the 1935 film of the same name) is a 1936 Warner Bros. Merrie Melodies cartoon directed by an uncredited Tex Avery.[2] The short was released on March 7, 1936.[3] The film uses Art Deco backgrounds and character designs.[4]
In a small town called Hicksville, excitement brews as locals prepare to welcome Miss Glory. Teenage bellhop Abner, who first yelled "Call for Miss Glory" in a manner similar to the "Call for Philip Morris" cigarette advertisements, accompanied by a similar advertisement on the wall, falls asleep on the job and dreams of working in an upscale city hotel. Abner navigates his dream world, culminating in a humorous encounter with a glamorous Miss Glory. Abner wakes up to find the real Miss Glory is a young girl.
