Van Beuren's rarely seen Little King cartoon series, based on Otto Soglow's popular comic strip creation, were produced in 1933 and 1934. These charming and nearly forgotton shorts are inventive, funny and entertaining, featuring great animation and musical scores by Gene Rodemich and Winston Sharples. This special collector's edition DVD features (for the first time available anywhere) the complete series, including the pre-Little King Sentinel Louie cartoons, plus Fleischer Studio's 1936 Betty Boop cartoon featuring the Little King, restored from original 16mm and 35mm film prints.
