Aesop's Fables: 21 Classic Cartoons

Description

2009 Aesop's Fables: 21 Classic Cartoons. Alpha Video Classics: Alpha Home Entertainment. $10 from an unknown source.

Might this dvd of 21 "Aesop's Fables" cartoons by Van Beuren Studios between 1929 and 1933 be related to the 2009 dvd "Aesop's Fables from the Van Beuren Studio, Volume 2"? "Toy Time," as on our dvd "2004 Cartoon Craze," remains a classic as two mice frolic through a toy store, playing with toys and then using them to terrorize the attacking cat. I also tried the first two cartoons on the disc. "Happy Polo" breaks animals down into machines and has separable parts frequently coming together again. A romantic interest between two mice is interrupted by an intruding cat. Even goalposts take on characteristics of humans and machines! "Summertime" has animals playing plants as orchestral instruments. The animation in these cartoons is by our standards rudimentary.
