Cover for the collection's LaserDisc box sets
The Golden Age of Looney Tunes is a collection of LaserDiscs released by MGM/UA Home Video in the 1990s. There were five sets made, featuring a number of discs, and each disc side represented a different theme, being made up of seven cartoons per side. The first volume was also released on VHS, with each tape representing one disc side.
Like many other Looney Tunes home video releases by MGM/UA Home Video, Volumes 1-4 used faded 35 mm Associated Artists Productions (a.a.p.) television prints as MGM/UA and Turner Entertainment, owners of the rights to the shorts, at the time had no access to Warner Bros.' negatives. Unlike many other Looney Tunes home video releases by MGM/UA Home Video, most of the a.a.p. logos were cut from the releases.
As Volume 5 was released in 1997, however, newer "remasters" were used that Turner Entertainment had created in 1995, infamously known as Turner "dubbed versions", to make the shorts look more presentable for television and home video releases. These shorts had an altered ending card taken from one of the shorts with the disclaimer to Turner Entertainment below. Turner did not have access to Warner Bros.' negatives, so only what was provided from a.a.p. could be used, hence why some of the Turner prints are of varying quality.
With the exception of the "Censored Eleven" shorts, every Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies short in the a.a.p./Turner library was released in this collection.
