Soundeffects Wiki
(The Lantz studio shut down in 1972. Also, I doubt Lantz himself created this sound. I don't know the name of the sound designer(s) at his studio when this sound was introduced.)

Back in 1945, [[Jimmy MacDonald]] created this sound for the Disney sound effects library, but it is unknown how its made. According to what we already know, he may have used muted brass instruments, turning wheels with small objects all over them, squeaky wheelbarrows, music tubes, and horns.
Originally a Universal effect, the sound effect was originally made for [[Walter Lantz Cartoons|Walter Lantz]] in the mid 1950s. It was first heard on various Walter Lantz and Woody Woodpecker cartoons, but it is currently to be announced which one first used it.

Today, it is heard in lots of media. It's one of the only sound effects created by Lantz that can actually be used; unlike so, most sound effects in the cartoons would be interrupted or taken over by music or voices.
