#CotD: Art Davis directed only one Bugs Bunny car­toon, “Bow­ery Bugs” but man was it was a good one.

Bow­ery Bugs (1949) — Mer­rie Melodies Cartoon

Bugs’ story of why Steve Brody jumped off the Brook­lyn Bridge in 1886. Brody is, at first, going to cut Bugs’ leg off for a rabbit’s foot to change his bad luck. Bugs con­vinces Brody to con­sult a for­tune– telling swami (Bugs, of course), and a series of mishaps leads Brody to become so averted to rab­bits that he jumps off the bridge!

You can watch “Bow­ery Bugs” on video at Big Car­toon DataBase
