The Animal Fair

Tom & Jerry and Friends

Rare Tom & Jerry treasures.

Gandy the Goose

In Gandy's debut film, he leaves home to make is way in the world. Unfortunately, he's an idiot with an Ed Wynn voice, and a wolf with a George Givot voice tries to lure him into his lair to eat him. Incredible coincidences save him from the stew pot.

Trouble

Tom and Jerry are ambulance-chasing lawyers in search of more business.

The Bird Tower

A Terrytoons cartoon released 28 November 1941.

Taming the Cat

We see a house cat next to an unoccupied birdcage as he pulls a canary feather out of his mouth. Hmm, I wonder what happened? Now he hangs up a sign: 'Songbirds Wanted'.

The Jungle Fool

Farmer Al Falfa flies to Africa with the Royal Society of African Explorers to hunt in the jungle.

Magic Art

Waffles the Cat and Don the Dog fiddle around with a magic pencil, producing drawings that come to life.

Red Riding Hood

Some "jazz tonic" restores Grandma's youth. When the Big Bad Wolf pays a visit, he and Grandma decide to marry on the spot; but Little Red Riding Hood finds a way to stop the wedding.

The Big Cheese

Comical character piece climaxing in a boxing match. Set in the rough, tough city; apparently the Bowery, if we let the music tell us. With one of those Mickey Mice that bugged the big "D".

Pencil Mania

This Tom and Jerry cartoon (the human versions, not the cat and mouse) is an opportunity for the animators to have fun with the medium. There is no specific plot. One of the boys uses a pencil to create a myriad number of animated illusions that could only work in a cartoon. For example, a short vertical line is drawn, which when held by both ends suddenly becomes a saxophone. When played, the notes pop out of the bell of the instrument to suddenly grow legs and transform into ducks. After the song, the saxophone itself quickly follows suit and becomes a goose. The entire short consists of these disjointed, though often creative and humorously unlikely events.

Jolly Fish

Tom and Jerry go fishing, where they encounter an affectionate but annoying fish who won't leave them alone. They hear a piano-playing octopus (with twelve arms!) and have a run-in with a sword fish who cuts their boat in half. Other hijinks ensue, and the two eventually catch a tiny fish, which is in turn swallowed by a larger fish, and this process continues until they've caught a veritable whale. They row ashore triumphant, but when one of them puts their reel (still holding the fish) over their shoulder, the larger fish slip off, unbeknownst to them, leaving them with the runt they started with.

In the Bag

Tom and Jerry crash their plane in the cartoon wild, wild west. Surreal hi-jinx involving a vicious outlaw and robbery ensue.

The Farmerette

RKO cartoon about a feline flapper who helps a farmer get his place up and running.

Pots and Pans

Tom and Jerry run a diner with a strange assortment of customers.

A Swiss Trick

Tom and Jerry are aboard a train making its way up a mountain in the Swiss Alps. When their train breaks down, they're spotted by a very thin St. Bernard, who brings the engine some liquor. The engine zips through the Alps, but leaves the pair behind.

Old Hokum Bucket

A slow farm life is turned upside-down thanks to some magic pills....
