I won the 'We're on Our Way to Rio' print-it's the most I've ever seen a single cartoon go for I think (and more than I've ever paid for any cartoon- EVER. OUCH!)


Look in the Thunderbean section for one of those 'Special' discs- perhaps the last of them- and perhaps it will feature siad cartoon!



You paid an arm and a leg for a clear version of the orange Para-mountain logo? HAW!
(I kid -- congratulations, pal!)



I think it may have a special ending, since the aap print cuts to the end title so abruptly. (Though I was surprised to see the standard Paramount end logo in the eBay listing. I thought it might be on a curtain that gradually lowered on Popeye and Olive.) Not to mention that the print that aired on the Turner networks is faded.

Here's a 35 mm print of the 1982 safety film "Ounce of Prevention" starring Mel Blanc and the Looney Tunes characters. There are no film frames shown, however.

As I'm sure you know from reading this , the film was eventually separated into PSAs like this:

A 16mm IB Tech of UPA's 1001 Arabian Nights 

A 35mm IB Tech of Rabbit Romeo (1958)

WHOA! I hope someone we know got that print, that special is incredibly rare in it's entirety (the only clips we do have, as Toadette mentioned, are the 3 PSAs they made out of it). The whole film hasn't shown up until now to my knowledge.

Rabbit Romeo's end title is messed up. What is that?

With the exception of that new copyright line, I had a public domain VHS containing "Hollywood Steps Out" that had that same opening card. Even more oddly, the rhumba beat that plays over the establishing shots of Ciro's and the music playing the first pan shot of celebrities (just before Cary Grant begins speaking) was used over that title card.

Too bad the listing for the "8 Ball Bunny" print offers no clues as to whether it has it's original bullseyes or if it's a reissue.

A 35mm IB Tech print of the 1949 Woody Woodpecker cartoon Drooler's Delight with the Universal reissue titles, which the seller claims are the original titles, when they clearly aren't, as this cartoon was originally released by United Artists:

A rare find of the reissue prints of the 40's Woody Woodpecker cartoons. Only one with reissue titles is on the Woody Woodpecker & Friends Classic Cartoon Collection DVD releases which I have.

Strange; it has a late-1960s rating card on it (indicating a 1969 reissue), but it has an RKO logo on the title card.
