Zama za Dhahabu za Katuni za Marekani
Zama za Dhahabu ya Katuni za Marekani (kwa Kiingereza: The Golden Age of U.S. Animation) ni kipindi cha historia ya katuni za huko Marekani ambacho kilianza na majilio ya katuni za sauti mnamo 1928, ikiwa na kilele cha upili baina nusu ya miaka ya 1930 na nusu ya kwanza ya miaka ya 1940, na kiliendelea hadi mwanzoni mwa miaka ya 1960 wakati tamthilia za katuni fupi zimeanza kupoteza umaarufu kutokana na utaratibu mpya wa katuni za televisheni.
Wahusika wengi sana wa katuni wa kukumbukwa waliungana katika kipindi hiki. Wahusika hao ni pamoja na Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Porky Pig, Popeye, Betty Boop, Woody Woodpecker, Chilly Willy, Mighty Mouse, Heckle and Jeckle, Mr. Magoo, Tom and Jerry, na igizo maarufu la Superman. Vipengele vya urefu wa katuni pia vilianza katika kipindi hiki, zilizojulikana zaidi ni zile filamu za kwanza za Walt Disney: Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, Pinocchio, Fantasia, Dumbo na Bambi.
