Citation : The first use of the Acme name in a Warner-released cartoon is in Porky’s Poppa (Clampett, 1938), in which the elder Pig orders a mechanical cow from the esteemed outfit, with the soon-to-be traditional chaos ensuing. Jones would not use Acme until The Good Egg (1939), in which he successfully employs an Acme toaster to hatch chicks. Incidentally, Acme is not an acronym. It derives from the Greek “akme” meaning “point” or “pinnacle”.
