Thanks for setting the record straight, Tommy.

On another note, Tommy, I spotted two cartoons in your photo of your collection you posted on your Facebook sometime back from which other titles have been taken from: "Big Apple" and something with a name I can't completely make out save for the words "Wanted A" ("Wanted a Doggie"?).

I want to add them to the list, seeing they're definitely in the "Astra" section of your collection, but seeing as your labels for them don't indicate whether they're Astra or not [at least from what I can see written on the labels] (I can only make out the word "Bootleg" next to "Big Apple"), but just to be on the safe side, I'd like to confirm with you whether they have Astra titles or not. And if you can remember offhand what cartoons they are, I'd appreciate that information as well.

Wanted a Doggie is an Astra (silent Castle of a Puddy, with Sharples tracks) and Big Apple is a non-Astra oddity.

Ya' know, I think you may be right! Not to mention, the fact the Castle Films reissue renames it "Dog Wanted!", obviously mangled by Astra in an attempt to avoid getting their keisters sued off by Castle or Terry himself. Thanks a lot!
