It was the first cartoon with synchronized sound (sound that matched the pictures) and is widely recognized as the premiere of Mickey Mouse (he had appeared twice before, but it's the first short to get noticed and is incorrectly believed to be his first appearance). It pretty much put Walt Disney and his studio on the map.
