Popeye Is Eye-Popping!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME! And to my twinster, Jean. The day is almost over, but it took time to get the video for this post ready.

Jeanie Beanie and I watched a lot of TV together while growing up, and Popeye cartoons were among our favorites. For my birthday I got what I wanted, the new Popeye DVD set. It was in expectation of that I made the new banner, with Popeye and Bluto, using a couple of cardboard puppets from the Kenner Super Show I won on eBay.

The Popeye DVD has been getting rave reviews. How good is it? Watch the 3-minute video I made, transitioning back-and-forth between the DVD and a VHS that is typical of what’s been available until now.

All but two of the cartoons are in black & white, but are just as stunning in their own way. To order a copy of this must-have 4-disc DVD from Amazon.com, click here.
