==Notes==
*Golden Collection: Volume 1 is the only entry in the series to:
**Include classic cartoons with the Tasmanian Devil and Marvin the Martian ("Devil May Hare", "Duck Dodgers in the 24½th Century" and "Haredevil Hare").
**Only include 14 cartoons per disc, as opposed to the usual 15 of later volumes (discounting "(Blooper) Bunny" and other bonus cartoons).
**Not include any B&W shorts.
**Have every cartoon in the collection have their opening title cards.
*Some cartoons on Golden Collection: Volume 1 that use 1998 Dub Prints have some sort of DVNR.
*On international release of Golden Collection: Volume 1, some special features, as well the main menu animations, were removed to make space for other audio language tracks.
*The trailer for Golden Collection: Volume 1 erroneously features clips from "Rabbit Rampage" and "Hare Trimmed", despite both cartoons not being featured in the collection. 
**"Rabbit Rampage" would later be included as a bonus feature on Volume 6.
**"Hare Trimmed" would not be included on any Golden Collection release; instead it would appear seven years later on the Looney Tunes Super Stars' Bugs Bunny: Hare Extraordinaire DVD.
