It was Zasu Pitts's final appearance on screen.

RIP Zasu -- And all the rest in that compilation sad flower

Zasu Pitts was her real name.
She was named for two of her aunts - Eli-ZA & SU-san ...

Her trademark high quavering voice inspired the voice of Olive Oyl in the Popeye cartoons, though Zasu herself never voiced Miss Oyl.
