  For the collector, this is a fairly standard set of public domain cartoons from the 1940s with the official intros and endings removed and the cartoon titles changed, 4 Warner Bros, 1 Woody Woodpecker and 2 Popeyes. Collectors should note that as of 8/06, 3 of these 4 Warner Cartoons had not been included on the 3 Warner Golden Collection anthologies. What is titled here 'Bugs, Bugs Go Away' is actually 'The Wabbit Who Came to Supper,' (1942, Friz Freleng), found in much better shape on Warners' Golden Collection Vol. 3. 'Wailroad Rabbit' is really Frank Tashlin's 'The Unruly Hare' from 1945; 'A Kitties Tale' is 'A Tale of Two Kitties' (1942, Bob Clampett), one of the 3 Tweety cartoons not to co-star Sylvester. 'Fraidy Cat' is actually 'We, the Animals Squeak' (1941, Bob Clampett). There are a lot of digital artifacts visible, especially highlighted squares of light- or color-corrected animation while the rest of the screen is static, and in 'Wailroad Rabbit' there are several newly digitized explosions, flames and captions, which while well done look a bit anachronistic. While acceptable as babysitting videos, the collector will want to weigh the limitations against obtaining what is otherwise hard to find on DVD. It's also fair to consider that these cartoons cost more than a dollar each, while the official Warner Golden Collections give you 56 cartoons (and tons of extras) for about 75 bucks.
