I've been looking at film bills in newspapers of the 1960s and '70s. Here are some I've found:

RODENT TO STARDOM (WB, 1967) with TONY ROME,
THE MOUSE THAT JACK BUILT (WB, 1959) with RIO BRAVO,
GOOFY'S FREEWAY TROUBLE (WDP, 1965, rerelease 1973) with SKALAWAG,
THE DOT AND THE LINE (MGM, 1965) with A PATCH OF BLUE,
THE CRUNCH BIRD (1971) with THE VALACHI PAPERS.

What pairings have you seen in theaters or in ads?

I know that the when Mickey Mouse cartoon Steamboat Willie made its debut at the Colony Theater in NYC, it was accompanied with the film Gang War.
