35mm Print of “Club Sandwich” (1931)
The cartoon seems to be set in France, but why? I have no idea.
“Hunting in 1950” (1926)
There’s a lot of fun gags here to make an enjoyable but somewhat thin-plot-ed cartoon.
“A Lad and His Lamp” (c. 1947 reissue of silent Aesop’s Fable)
Forget “The Fablemans” – We want more Fabletoons! Full of “worldly animals”, this was an attempt to add sound to Paul Terry’s silent films.
Heckle and Jeckle Tales
From theatrical shorts from 20th Century Fox, to the Filmation Saturday Morning series – then thrown to the curbside by Paramount – an overview of those two talking magpies.
Aesop Fables: “Land O’ Cotton” (1929)
Scanned from a reversal print made from a rare Kodascope 16mm print from the 30s, just as it was becoming unprojectable.
“The Magic Slipper” (1948)
Some good, pure cartoon escapism is on the plate for this week’s cartoon – take a little break and enjoy a Terrytoon in HD, from a rare, spliceless Kodachrome! print.

MORE Silent Era Aesops Fables
Once again Mark Kausler has pulled out a set of early silent Paul Terry Aesop Fables cartoons from his massive collection.
