## Description

This comprehensive collection of Max Fleischer cartoon masterpieces presents over 30 rarely seen Technicolor animated shorts, produced during the golden age of animation. Fleischer created the "Color Classics," a twisted collection of musical cartoons, to showcase his patented "Stereo-optical Process" that created the illusion of depth by animating his characters over three-dimensional, live action backgrounds. In this special digital picture and sound restoration, you'll discover a menagerie of wonderfully bizarre new characters and a massive dose of the Fleischers' surreal humor. Highlights include "Greedy Humpty Dumpty," "The Cobweb Hotel," "Ants in the Plants," and "The Fresh Vegetable Mystery." Featured are two Academy Award Cartoon Short Subject nominees - "Educated Fish" (1937) and "Hunky and Spunky" (1938) - as well as famed Fleischer femme fatale Betty Boop ("Poor Cinderella") and Grampy ("Christmas Comes But Once a Year"), and a potpourri of great song cartoons such as "Dancing on the Moon," "Hold It," "An Elephant Never Forgets," and "Small Fry." This collection is a dream come true for cartoon aficionados and Fleischer fanatics, young and old alike! Animated characters: BETTY BOOP, GRAMPY, HUMPTY DUMPTY, HUNKY and SPUNKY and more!

Review: A Piece of My Childhood - When I was a kid, my sister and I had a bunch of cheapie public domain tapes with old cartoons on them; we used to watch them constantly. When we were older and felt that we outgrew cartoons, we gave the tapes away, but I always regretted doing so. I finally found many of our favorite shorts gathered together on this 2 disk set. The Fleischer studios Color Classics are excellent short animated films. The simple stories are memorable and the animation is unique. The characters are made to be rather cute and the rotoscope backgrounds are an unusual touch. These films do not get the credit they deserve, but here they are to be rediscovered. Somewhere in Dreamland is an obvious standout. Two desperately poor children walk home to find a meager dinner of bread and coffee. They go to bed and dream of a world of undulating sweets and happiness. When they wake, they find that the neighborhood has gathered a collection of goodies for them to enjoy. Play Safe is a sweet little story about a curious little boy and the dog that protects him. When the boy wanders away from the yard, it is up to the dog to save him. Christmas Comes But Once a Year features a group of orphans in the poorhouse who have very little for Christmas. A local man dresses us as Santa Claus and makes all sorts of creative toys from odds and ends for the children. In Little Lamby, a wolf comes to town and sets his sights on a tasty young lamb. He lures it to him by holding a "cutest baby" contest among all of the animals. Little do they know that the winner will become his dinner. The Fresh Vegetable Mystery is very well done; the baby carrots turn up missing and some mischievious creatures do all they can to prevent them from being found. Several rare cartoons are found in the Lost Episodes feature, a short documentary about the Fleischer cartoons and the making of this DVD set. The Kids in the Shoe is included here, a great short about the woman who lived in the shoe. She puts the children to bed and goes off to take her nap, and the kids wake up to play some great jazz. Overall, this is a great set. The picture quality isn't always amazing, but all of the cartoons are watchable and appropriate for all ages.
Review: Good quality and audio! - There a few films in this collection that brings back wonderful memories, such as (Somewhere in dreamland, and Christmas comes but once a year). Thank you for selling this item!
