This is Grampy from the Betty Boop cartoons! Not many people know about him as Betty Boop has taken all the limelight, and rightly so! Anyhoo, here's a little page about him, because I don't want to leave him out!

There were eight fun filled cartoons with the delightful Grampy, mad Inventor extraordinaire, whom it was said was based on Betty Boop creator, Max Fleischer.
In one cartoon Grampy, an old fellow who works for the weather bureau, is fast asleep, and when the rain starts to fall, it activates a fancy sequence of events resulting in him awakening.
He hearkens to the weather, and raises a giant umbrella over the city. We get to hear his voice when he makes an exclamation; he sounds like Grampy. The invention designed to wake him up and the unlikely solution to the problem of rain (the giant umbrella) are all characteristics of Grampy.
There isn't much information on poor old Betty Boop Grampy, so if you have any more information I will glady feature it on my website with your details, and you can be part of the Betty Boop experience!
