It's kinda strange that the taletell signs of censorship that are mentioned below are visible in the restored print, but not on the aap print (the one that's on the laserdisc set)
@Urilious -- The audio on this version (taken from the LTGC Vol. 4 DVD) is from the 1995 dubbed version the Turner people did ... until you get to the last 20 seconds. Because the dubbed version substituted the 1941-55 end title music, the last 20 seconds here is the audio from an unrestored print, but with the correct end title music. That's why the sound at the end of the cartoon is so poor.
@superleviathan I read that this short has 45 seconds of footage that was cut from the Blue Ribbon reissue. Sadly the deleted footage is considered lost.
CREATIVITY!!

@Urilious
I wonder if the LD print also has the 1937-38 end music instead of the 1938-41 end music?

@ClassicTVMan1981 Nope it has the 1938-41 ending cue. (btw the audio quality on the LD sounds way better)

There are a lot of bizarre cuts in this cartoon (check out the glimpse of a Sunny California brochure at 1:10 and the Gota Canal at 2:12).
Was this a case of Warner cutting stuff for the Blue Ribbon reissue?

I like this cartoon! I haven't seen this since the ToonHeads "Tish Tash" episode, back in 2001!
