This was on my 50 classics 6 hours of cartoons VHS from my childhood. Except it wasnt in color, it looked like it was run through a deep orange filter.

For years ive had thoughts that some of our old cartoons were the product of cocaine use, the bizzare ones and there's a few, I read recently , Gumby's creator , dabbled with LSD. Thats a little upsetting, and distroys the innocent and nostalgia associated with old cartoons. Someone tell me it isnt so .
It was originally made in color, otherwise it wouldn't be called a COLOR Classic. My guess is that this copy was made for TV broadcast back when the majority of people owned black-and-white televisions.
This how i watched it in NYC .late 1950's to early 1960's , it looks normal to me ,the color ones look odd to me. My parents didnt get a color TV till 1972. To my surprise after all these years i just found out Huckleberry Hound was BLUE!
because it was originally made in Black and White it was made in 1938 after all... not everything had color right away it was expensive in those days...
Paramount uses color classics that were from U.M.&.M Film Corp. and NTA which both of these cartoon companies got defunct in the mid or late 40s (or the 50s if so) except Paramount
Well I've seen several different videos of Small Fry here on RU-vid, They're in color and several of the Fleischer Color Classics from the mid to late 1930s were also done in color, It's just a little strange to me that this video would be shown in black and white but it's really not that important.
