BOOTLEG: Echo Bridge Home Entertainment Superman cartoon DVD with tin box (2009)

2009SupermanCartoonTinBox

Here is a tin box produced by Echo Bridge Home Entertainment that contains two DVDs. The first DVD features ten Fleischer Superman cartoons from 1941 and 1942.  The second DVD contains eighteen classic public domain cartoons.

Even though I’ve classified this collectible as a “bootleg”, it is a tricky item to categorize.  The 1940s Fleischer Superman cartoons fell into the public domain many years ago but Superman has not.  Because of this, any non-Warner Bros. releases of these cartoons fall into a rare circumstance where they are considered legal but still can be considered bootleg.

What are your thoughts about the collection?
