Warner Bros. Cartoons Golden Jubilee 24 Karat Collection is a Looney Tunes VHS and Betamax home video collection from Warner Home Video. It was the first official home video collection in which the black-and-white cartoons were featured in their said original presentation, and also marks the home video debut for the black and white cartoons. Originally released on nine videos in 1985, three additional tapes were released in October 1986.
Each tape began with a newly animated sequence in which the police are chasing the Tasmanian Devil (who ironically did not have a spotlight video in this collection, though only one of his cartoons on a motorcycle ("Bedevilled Rabbit") appears on only one of the VHS tapes in this collection (A Salute to Mel Blanc)). Taz drives his bike through a theater in which Bugs, Daffy and Porky are on stage with many characters marching across the stage behind them, akin to the beginning of The Bugs Bunny Show (complete with a few instrumental bars of "This Is It" accompanying the scene). The animated sequence ends with a red-and-white WB shield as seen in the classic shorts emerging as Taz drives through the scene.
Some prints of the cartoons in these videos are time-compressed (sped-up from their original speed). These titles include "Porky's Duck Hunt", "You Ought to Be in Pictures", "The Wearing of the Grin", and "Dough for the Do-Do" on the Daffy Duck and Porky Pig tapes. The reason behind the time compression for these four cartoons are due to space restrictions in the VHS tapes at the time, especially due to the longer running time for "Porky's Duck Hunt" (8 minutes, 50 seconds) and "You Ought to Be in Pictures" (9 minutes, 45 seconds).
Time Life Video offered a mail-order set of Looney Tunes tapes during the early 1990s. It was called The Looney Tunes Library, and consisted of the Looney Tunes Video Show, Golden Jubilee and Cartoon Cavalcade tapes. Some of these tapes were packaged with different artwork than the versions offered in stores.
•The Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Road Runner vs. Wile E. Coyote, and Speedy Gonzales tapes received the RIAA Certified Gold Video Award and consistently performed well on Billboard's Top Videocassettes and Top Kid Video sales charts.
•Some of the cartoons in the video collections have colored borders, or black ones, around their opening titles (although the end titles have no borders at all). These colored borders are not seen on later home video releases since the late-1980s (even if the cartoons have borders around the opening titles the colors are limited to black only). Some of these video prints from this collection even turned up on television airings, although these have been phased out in favor of restored prints in recent days.
•Most of these cartoons from this collection (along with cartoons coming from the Looney Tunes Video Show and Cartoon Cavalcade tapes) are time-compressed to PAL speed when shown on Cartoon Network and Boomerang in USA and on Tooncast in Latin America (despite being in NTSC countries). This may have been for time, although the airings of pre-1948 cartoons air at NTSC speed despite pre-1948 cartoons generally running longer than post-1948 cartoons.
•To tie in with these releases, the following events took place:
•Museum of Modern Art put together an exhibit called "That’s Not All Folks! Warner Bros. Cartoons Golden Jubilee".
•Bugs Bunny received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
