Gertie On Tour (Unfinished 1921 Gertie The Dinosaur Sequel)

Gertie The Dinosaur is the best known work by animator/ cartoonist WInsor McCay. The short is known for being one of the first truly innovative pieces of animation. Gertie proved that a cartoon character could have an identifiable personality. There were 2 versions of the original short available: one where Winsor would stand in front of the screen directing gertie and one where intertitles would give Gertie directions. The impressive animation continues to wow audiences to this day.

The sequel, Gertie On Tour, was planned but was left unfinised. Only a fragment lasting barely over a minute has survives. It is not known exactly how much animation was completed for this, but it turns out that McCay probably felt fresh out of ideas and decided to drop the character (as can be seen by the fact that Gertie doesn't appear to be doing much in the fragment).
