Tex Avery's Screwball Classics 1 [VHS/PAL Video]

Rare animated classics, not found on DVD.

Tex Avery's "Screwball Classics" contains a great selection of cartoons that I loved as a kid, and which I still find wonderfully funny. "Magical Maestro," "Bad Luck Blackie," and "Symphony in Slang" are by far very original and funny. "The Cat Who Hated People" is a cartoon with a moral: "Things could always be worse!" Although "Who Killed Who" has its moments, it doesn't seem to fit with the other cartoons selected. Overall, "Screwball Classics" can be enjoyed by young and old and features some of the best in cartoon entertainment!

昔テレビでやってたトムとジェリーの真ん中の奴を集めてます。へんてこオペラとか呪いの黒猫は必見！。ただ、SWING SIFT CINDERELLAだけは戦時中の知識が一寸無いと本当の面白さは分からないかも（でも、シンデレラのダンスシーンは優雅で色っぽいです）。

I have not seen these toons in a while. The last time I watched these toons on cable, they were hacked up and censored, mainly due to the racist humor in them. For example in 'Magical Maestro' an ink pen is squirted onto Poochini and transformed in a "black faced" performer. Well I was glad to see the cartoons on this tape were not touched by the censors, and everything is in tact! This is a must for any Tex Avery fan, I plan on purchasing the next volumes in this series. I would loved to have seen it on DVD :) (hint hint)

It came as described except that the cover is faded as if its been in a front window for a few years.

A big part of my childhood. Great pre-pc cartoons.
