Behind the scenes

- This is the last cartoon from the original Termite Terrace cartoon studio where the opening color rings or the Bugs Bunny Introduction Card fades to the title card of the cartoon instead of fading to black then to the title card, fully completing the transition of introducing the "A VITAGRAPH/VITAPHONE RELEASE" byline to the ending titles.
