InfoField
  • The animated short film (including the rest of materials and elements) entered the public domain in 1971, when the United Artists (UA) (a successor to the Associated Artists Productions (AAP) for pre-1948 titles) did not renew the original copyright holder Vitaphone within required 28-year period. - Referenced from the Looney Tunes Wiki (1, 2)
  • Reviewing was done by Jayvee Enaguas (HarvettFox96) and Racconish in April 2020. At the opening card sequence, showing a copyright notice (bottom) that reads “Copyright MCMXLII by The Vitaphone Corp.” Found no results for record entry there on the registration list between 1942 and 1943, and on the renewal registration list between 1969 (1, 2) and 1970 (1, 2) on copyright catalogues.
  • A (current) print of Blue Ribbon reissue altered and scrapped away from the original title card sequence, and nowadays it is probably lost or missing due to wiping.
  • The animated short film is widely available in both physical and digital formats.
