Does anyone know how many and which MGM cartoons are in the public domain. So far I only know of three:
Jerky Turkey
Senor Droopy
Doggone Tired

Does anyone know any others?

-TO SPRING: this was featured, oddly enough, in one volume of the FABULOUS FLEISCHER FOLIO series of tapes from the 80īs (the only non-Fleischer/non-Famous cartoon found on that collection).
-I also found once PUSS GETS THE BOOT in a PD tape, but I donīt know if this means that it is really in public domain.

I guess MGM is the studio with less PD cartoons, together with Lantz (PANTRY PANIC, WOODY PLAYS SANTA -the alternative title for SKI FOR TWO-, apart from any b/w titles), Terrytoons (WOLF! WOLF!, THE TALKING MAGPIES, again apart from any b/w titles) and Columbia (I donīt know of any).

I think another Lantz cartoon in the pd is "Boy Meets Dog" Speaking of non pd cartoons on pd sets: Popeyes
Abusement Park (1947)
Poopdeck Pappy (1940)
Quiet Pleeze! (1941)
