Wanted: Any UPA Scope cartoon in Super 8

[David Monard Ice]

I’m trying to round out my collection of scope cartoons. Only studio I’m missing is UPA—except, of course, WB, Fleisher/Famous Studiis, Walter Lantz, etc. who never did scope. Thanks!

While you look for these on film, you might be interested in the DVD collection Mr. Magoo - The Theatrical Collection 1949-1959 from Shout! Factory:

Since 1949, Mr. Magoo has bumbled his way to good fortune for more than six decades. His endearing misadventures in everyday life and his stubborn self-confidence have entertained generations.

Voiced by the multitalented comedic actor Jim Backus, the nearsighted Mr. Magoo was an instant hit and went on to become a classic animated character starring in two Academy Award®–winning* theatrical shorts, three television series and two television specials.

This special collector's edition brings together for the first time on DVD all 53 theatrical cartoons, including many in their original Cinemascope aspect ratio, plus the feature film 1001 ARABIAN NIGHTS, all in one deluxe collection.

The Magoo DVD collection is surprising good in these days of 4k UHD. As one reviewer said:

Oh Shout! Factory, you’ve done it again! “The Mr. Magoo Theatrical Collection (1949-1959)” is a brand new special edition edition 4-DVD set available for the first time. Included on the DVD are all 53 theatrical cartoons, including 12 cartoons in anamorphic widescreen for the first time. If that isn’t enough, there is also the feature film “1001 Arabian Nights”. These have shorts never looked better and in fact they actually have been newly remastered and delivered in their original theatrical aspect ratios. A must own for again Magoo fan!

Thanks for the tip on Tom and Jerry on Bluray!
