Space Angel and Clutch Cargo were from the Cambria Studio, Spunky & Tadpole was from Beverly Films (distr.: Guild Films), Gumby was from Art Clokey (distr.: NBC), Courageous Cat was from Sam Singer (distr.: American International), and Krazy Kat was King Features.

The local origination for Bozo the Clown may have been Tribune, but the cartoons were from Larry Harmon Studios.
 
Oh, and a name correction: Hugh Harman's partner at MGM (previously at Warner Bros.) was Rudolf Ising. Together their name formed the word "harmonizing" to pair up with their Happy Harmonies series.
