An inventive soul with alleged access to every single Warner Brothers cartoon produced between 1930 and 1969 put together a video that includes one frame from each of those cartoons. I don't know if it includes the Censored Eleven, since I can only recall ever seeing one of them, and that only once 'way back when.
Notice how character design got more sophisticated as the studio ramped up cartoon production in the late 1930s. Note, too, the increased angularity and decreased exaggeration as the 1950s wear on. By the 1960s, it seems all the animators and directors knew how to do was to draw cleanly: there is little evidence anybody ever heard of an extreme. (If you actually watch the cartoons, you'll see they lacked any sense of timing, or energy, or fun.)
