Notes

  • The Cartoon Festivals print is a damaged a.a.p. print where the a.a.p. logo plays first, then the 1947-49 Color Rings open, instead of the 1946-47 rings, notice the light blue borders. The 1939-40 version of "Merrily We Roll Along" plays instead of the 1941-45 version. The print then changes to another print that says "Sniffles Bells the Cat". This is a MGM/UA print and probably was hacked off by United Artists in the 1980s.
