Back in those days, cartoons were for adults, not just kids like most are today.

ABSOLUTELY!!!!
This cartoon was most likely shown as a "short" before the main feature at movie theaters in USA.
There are still examples of "adult" cartoons existing.. I can remember an old Bugs Bunny episode where Bugs ends up doing an impersonation of Joseph Stalin.. what kid would get that?
