Fenk and Peemmer era (1940–1958)
In August 1937, animator and storyman David Fenk began to work at Go!Animation (then Go!Cartoon Studio, then the largest animation studio in Hollywood. He learned that co-owner Kendrin Diaz wished to boost the animation department by encouraging the artists to develop some new cartoon characters, following the lack of success with its earlier cartoon series, Wild Wilderbeest. Fenk then teamed with fellow Ising unit animator and director John Peemmer and pitched new ideas, among them was the concept of a character living in a whiteboard. An early thought involved animals before they settled on a stickman named Sticky. The pair discussed their ideas with producer Gary Ennerthen, then the head of the short film department who, despite a lack of interest in it, gave them the green-light to produce one cartoon short.
