A Little Video Chat About the Van Beuren Tom and Jerry Blu-ray
I recorded a short video to showcase some of the Van Beuren Tom and Jerry project we’ve been working on.

“The Bully’s End” (1933)
With a cast of hundreds of staring-straight-forward animals, it’s a fun one reel of entertainment.
Oswald In “Wonderland” (1931)
If Fleischer cartoons from 1931 are like candy, the Lantz Oswalds from this period are like homemade cookies. Today, a delicious cookie!
A Little Revisit to Ted Eshbaugh’s Work
Eshbaugh’s work in the 30s and 40s has always fascinated me— and good versions of his work became one of the big motivators for Thunderbean.
Van Beuren’s “Redskin Blues” (1932)
Redskin Blues is what you’d expect from Van Beuren – always some fun things to keep things lively.
Update: Sending “Flip” to Mastering!
Cartoon: “Jolly Fish” (1932)
There’s something so comfortable about watching a cartoon that isn’t trying to impress you in any way but rather just give you a chuckle.
Presenting the “Rufle Baton”!
Animator George Rufle came up with this clever device, hidden from view for over 90 years.
The Little King in “Jest of Honor” (1934)
This is one of my favorites of the series, and absolutely one of the hardest to find a decent print on.
Van Beuren’s “Jungle Jam” (1931)
While Jungle Jam is the usual sort of VB cannibal cartoon, there’s some fun and bizarre gags – and a great Rodemich score – despite its stereotypes.
Van Beuren’s “Pastrytown Wedding” (1934)
How many folks here remember seeing this cartoon when growing up on local television? I’d love to hear your memories of that.
