Bill,

My wife got a copy for me at a place called Natural Wonders in Woodfield Mall
in Schaumburg, IL.  It might be a chain store but I'm not sure.  It is a
MIRAMAR videotape.  MIRAMAR, 200 Second Ave West, Seattle, Washington 98119.

Good luck and let me know if you need more info...

Well, I kinda agree with that.  By totally narowing the scope of the comic

don't like my bootleg Cal and Hob T-shirt :)

I have the two Golden Age of Looney Toons Laserdisc sets.  They are 
wonderful and, of course, I want more.   I have a couple of questions.

Since they are released by MGM, does this mean that the cartoons on 
these discs are owned by MGM, or did MGM just transfer and release 
them on Laserdisc for Warner Brothers?

The cartoons currently being telecast on Saturday mornings on ABC's
Bugs Bunny and Tweety Show generally represent the output during the 
late 1940's through the 50's.  None of these are present in either of 
the two current boxed sets.

Will there be more of these boxed sets released?  Will they contain
some of the cartoons released during the late 40's and 50's?  Are 
there conflicting ownership issues that could cause problems?

E-Mail or rec.arts.animation posts would be appreciated.
 
Thanks,

Back at the end of the 40s, Warner Brothers sold its entire film library
to MGM, so everything made by Warner up through 1948 is owned by MGM (and,
therefore by Ted Turner, as he bought MGM's library a number of years
ago). That's why some classic Warner Brothers films, such as CASABLANCA,
are also released through MGM/UA.

Warner Brothers still owns all of the post-1948 LT's, which includes
what *I* think is the *real* "Golden Age". All of the Road Runner
cartoons are from 1949 through the 50s, as well as "Duck Dodgers",
"What's Opera, Doc?", "One Froggy Evening" and so forth.

} Will there be more of these boxed sets released?

Undoubtedly. Both of the sets released so far have sold extremely well.

} Will they contain some of the cartoons released during the late 40's
} and 50's?

Not bloody likely.

} Are there conflicting ownership issues that could cause problems?

Depends on how you define "conflict". Warner and MGM aren't in contention
over ownership. Each has a clearly defined ownership over a specific
set of Looney Tunes.

old cartoons up at the check out counter.  Needless to say, I purchased

Date: 28 Aug 92 08:25:39 CST
Organization: Inland Steel Company; East Chicago, IN

	From "Of Mice and Magic" (1980), by Leonard Matlin, page 280:

"Hugh Harman's finest hour came in 1939 with the release of PEACE ON EARTH.
Shown in theaters at Christmas time, when war had broken out in Europe, the
film has a pacifist theme that was especially timely and a unique approach
that's disarming.  When yuletide carolers sing of "peace on earth, good will to
men," two infant squirrels ask their grandfather what "men" are.  Grandpa
explains that there are no men anymore; he remembers them as "uniformed
monsters" who continually fought each other.  No sooner did they finish fighting
about one thing than they'd start over something else.  His memories are
illustrated with grim, dark, realistic scenes of men in battle, in trenches and
mud fields under gloomy, clouded skies.  The wars Grandpa continues, came to a
climax when the meat eaters attacked the vegatarians.  Finally it boiled down to
two men; when they killed each other, the world was in ruins and mankind was
wiped from the face of the earch.  Then the animals found, amid the debris of a
bombed-out church, a Book, which laid down a series of laws that seemed to make
sense.  Among its admonitions was one to "rebuild the old wastes."  The animals
did and forged a new and happy life for themselves -- which brought them to this
joyous holiday season.  The carolers continue their singing and proclaim once
more, "Peace on earch, good will to men.""
	"PEACE ON EARTH is a considerable achievement, of which Hugh harman was
justifiably proud.....[The short won] a _Parent's Magazine_ medal, never before
given to a short subject.  It was also nominated for an Academy Award.  But
perhaps the greatest tribute to Harman's film was that Hanna and Barbera were
able to remake it, scene for scene, in CinemaScope sixteen years later and find
that it retained its original effectiveness.  The 1955 version was called GOOD
WILL TO MEN."

There were two version of this poster- one was Necron-99 on horseback, standing
on the mound with skulls and flies on the ground, the other was Peace after
conversion, with flowers and butterflies on the ground.

The Necron-99 version is the rarer of the two, and is more likely to get the
$50 asking price. The Peace version is actually rather common, and worth more
along the lines of $20-30.

    I have heard of this set. It is all 17 cartoons placed on two tapes. The
    screen has been shrunken slightly so that the whole image can be seen, as
    most tv's hide the side of the screen. And they are all recorded from mint
    original reels and touched up! This is for the real collector, as the only
    difference is the smaller image so you can see every tiny bit of the
    cartoon!
