    This is great if you are 30 something to 1 year old. My nephews and niece love this set. Some of it loses them (the non-cartoons), but they love the cartoons because they are unlike anything they have seen. For me it brings back memories of early Saturday mornings. Well worth the money – I recommend it!

    This is a really great buy! I gave this to my Granddaughter, along with a new DVD player, and she hasn’t stopped watching these multiple character cartoons yet! Their the “old” cartoons that us, aged 40-60 remember on TV and at the drive in theatres. Great quality, very entertaining. You won’t be disappointed!!

    Anyone can complain about the quality on this set but we all forget how old these Golden Treasures are too. Yes, they are VHS recordings, and now they are all on DVD format which (in my opinion) is awesome! Many of the animations have never even seen the light of day until the release of this set. I’m very impressed that they did little to no restoration on these shorts and episodes because when watching, it would take most of the dated time away from the films. Tampering may also even damage the original prints/recordings and/or just take away the simple things that made them so memorable in the first place. I’m very happy the way they are! The randomness and categorization on each disk gives all disks worth a look and full of many suprises. Its nice to see a lot of animations exclusively only on this set (such as Felix The Cat, where many of his cartoons are only on this set).

    THIS COLLECTION IS SO LEGENDARY THAT THEY EVEN UPGRADED IT INTO A TIN-CASE, INCLUDING A T-SHIRT!

    PLEASE MAKE MORE! THANKS AGAIN!

    If you like many, many, many old cartoons from Hollywood’s golden era drifted into “Publicdomainland”, you will surely like this pack (I enjoyed it). But if you like to watch old cartoons in good prints, or at least in passable prints, then forget it!

    For instance, the technicolor looks like monocolor, and the black and white looks like grey and invisible (not to mention the scratches, the cuts, the jumps… And even the image interferences of obvious VHS tracking!!!).

    Before buying it I recall reading similar reviews to mine, and I thought these were exagerations: I confirm you they are not! (However, to be fair, some of the prints are passable and some, by some miracle, are even good!)

    Overall all, if you think in terms of price/number of films, I would recommend it. With better prints, I would have then recommend it without doubts!

    Product context: Mainly Paramount, Van Beuren and assorted silent cartoons. But there is also some avoidable TV entries (1950s-80s) and many, many unclassified rarities from around the world (even not animated).

    P.S. If someone knows of good dvd editions of Paramount’s classic catalogue, please let me know.

    P.S.2 Hope that it is understandable what I mean, since English is not my mother language.
