It's a late example of the synchronized sound cartoon. When sound was first applied to cartoons, it was not possible to match lip movements to voices, so instead what the producers made were essentially silent cartoons with scores that were synchronized to the movement -- a technique that came to be called "mickey mousing" because that's how Carl Stalling orchestrated the early Mickey Mouse ad Silly Symphonies cartoons. About 1930, Hugh Harman, Rudolf Ising and Friz Freleng figured out how to match mouths to words, but synchronized cartoons like this lingered for a few years.
