It was new for me that Walt was running another animation studio before his Laugh-O-Gram Studio. KayCee Studio was founded in 1921 and the next year it went bankrupt or changed its name to Laugh-O-Gram.

Also found out that even if they called Ub Iwerks' studio "Iwerks Studio", its real name was actually Celebrity Pictures, founded by Pat Powers even before Iwerks left Disney.

I had left this window open when you posted it, but closed it and forgot about it until now.

It's crazy that there's hardly any information online about Kaycee Studio.

Here's what I could find:
