Notes

  • The USA and EU Turner "dubbed version" replaces the 1938-1941 Merrie Melodies ending music rendition with the 1941-1955 ending music rendition [1].
  • The cartoon released as a special feature in LTGC Vol. 6 uses an unreleased stereo mix of its recreated 1995 m/e soundtrack (used mostly for the 1995 redubs of this short). Note that some of Sniffles' dialogue's volume has been decreased, making it hard for viewers to understand the lines the character says. In addition, both the opening and (altered) ending music cues, as well as the unaltered parts of the background music appear to sound canned for this reason [2][3].
    • Another bonus cartoon which faces a similar problem of mixed audiotracks as this short on the same DVD is "Hop and Go" (1943)[4]
  • The copyright was renewed in 1967.
