** It's possible that due to the fact that Hallmark destroyed most of Filmation's original library when they remastered them, the original masters of the special may likely presumably no longer exist and was possibly not remastered at all.

** It's possible It was once theorized that due to the fact that since Hallmark destroyed most of Filmation's original library when they remastered them, it was remastered, the original masters of the special may likely presumably no longer exist and existed (and was possibly not remastered at all.all). This was proven untrue with an airing of the special on the German TV channel "Anixe", as the airing presented the special in HD. This indicates that the master tapes of the special still exist, but have barred from rerelease due to the aforementioned copyright issues.

* HeAlsoDid: Creator/WarnerBrosAnimation veteran Virgil Ross was an animator in this production, though his signature style isn't very evident (though it's likely he handled the scenes where Sylvester and Yosemite Sam were the most on-model, since he generally worked in Friz Freleng's unit.)

* ActingForTwo: Creator/MelBlanc voices the male ''Looney Tunes'' stars, of course. The same occurs with Frankie, Wolfie and Hauntleroy; voiced like they are in their main show by Howard Morris, along with Drac, Hagatha and Claude Chaney being voiced by Larry Storch.
