AbstractHistoryArchive Description

A short, animated film by Dusan Marek, based on a nursery rhyme. According to the National Film and Sound Archive's catalogue entry for this film, it depicts 'a feud between Taffy and another man, who ends up setting Taffy's clothes on fire and getting blown up '. Based on this description and the title, the film is most likely a variant of the anti-Welsh English nursery rhyme 'Taffy Was a Welshman', which appears in a number of variants.
