Sorry, but am I the only one who can see the 'ghosted' afterimage that lags behind the frames, giving the whole thing a 'soupy' feel?
If we're going to preserve old cartoons, let's do it well -- the smeariness of the image is undoubtedly a botch of tape-to-digital conversion, but one that needs fixing. Sadly, once it's encoded in a botched manner it's extremely hard to salvage.
For anyone who wants to, there's an 'un botched' version where only 1 frame is displayed @ a time on YT somewhere.
This is said to be the first looney tunes. However, looney tunes's actual history begins in 1919. Yes, Felix the cat is probably the first looney tunes, since he is trademark of 20th c
@westpalmbeach5 There is so much fascinating history to reflect on from the point of view of the technical merits of the animation. It seems a little irrelevant to me whether or not there was still slavery in America at the time. But even if you do want to know can't you just go look it up on Wikipedia or something? You have a year--1929!
@TheAlmightyBassist Yeah, but i've seen other cartoons from the 20's with better sound than this, even a few much earlier.

@Themaniacnextdoor these were the 1920s. Sound was only just beginning at this time. That's why the sound isn't great. Personally i like it.

This should have been fixed/ Ther sound is really bad and the picture ghosts.

I accidentally posted this comment incomplete. I made a mistake. Felix is actually trademark of Warner bros.
