Some years ago a cheapo DVD company (EastWestDVD) released a disc that sold in bargain $1 bins at a number of stores across the country that were ripped from a number of videotapes like this one. Someone informed me this was relabeled something else like "Animation Greats" and sold as-is in a rather vague fashion (but under the guise of a kiddie video that certainly wasn't). Fascinating how low some people can stoop.
Wow, that cover IS totally misleading. On the other hand, I'm not much of an animation person, so with the exception of the stop motion, the shorts on the tape (and the DVD)were not that entertaining to me. Honestly, I was into it because of the box and the distributor, but I'm glad I found it.
This tape was classic!
