Sorry folks, but Donald Duck preceeds porky Pig as the original ShirtCocker.
Also, he has already been embraced by the ShirtCockers as thier official mascot.
1934 was his original appearance in a cartoon, and he was also in book from 1931.
Porky Pig's first appearance was 1935.

oddly enough, at about the 1:30 mark in Donald's first film, another pig that strongly suggests that Porky was lifted from Disney, makes an appearance.
here is that cartoon......
