A look at my Tom & Jerry bootleg VHS set

They don't call me CDCBootleg for nothing. Back in 2003 I accidentally purchased a 3 VHS bootleg set (not knowing it was a bootleg) of Tom & Jerry off of eBay that claimed to be the "Complete Cartoon Collection" when in fact it was missing several shorts, notably several from the Gene Deitch era. Additionally, the shorts that are on the set are in an entirely random order, and some such as "The Midnight Snack" appear twice on the set!

 

Now, the labels have since fallen off (figures...) and unfortunately I lost the first VHS many years ago, but I remember that the names of the three tapes were...

 

Tape 1 - Tom

Tape 2 - &

Tape 3 - Jerry

 

As for the actual content, while I obviously can't show the two tapes that I still have here (each of them is 8 hours long!), I can show you this YouTube video which is basically a look at why it's a crappy set, apart from being pirated. Includes actual footage from the set.
