Louis Wain Fact #33:
A 1939 interview with Harvey Harrison, Wain’s cameraman for his animated efforts, reveals a lot of behind the scenes info, and possible insight into why Wain gave up the medium. Production was troubled, the camera was in a trestle pointed at the floor, where Wain animated. Wain would take a long time drawing, and there was an incident one hot day where Harrison fell asleep while Wain was drawing, only to wake up and find Wain asleep as well, having spilled ink all over.

Molly was a Mermaid
Living in the sea
And a happier Mermaid
There could never be
On her fifteen birthday,
Father Neptune said,
"What d'you think I've brought you,
Molly little maid?
Here's a fine new motor
So just jump inside,
And, my dear, I'll take you
For a splendid ride!"
