* YoungFutureFamousPeople: "The Little Cut-up" is about a boy who chops down a tree, which left several WoodlandCritters homeless. He takes them to his family's estate to move in, and when he chops down a cherry tree for some beavers to make a new dam, his father comes out and is about to shoot the beavers when the boy confesses "I cannot tell a lie. I did it with my little hatchet." Yep, that little boy was UsefulNotes/GeorgeWashington.

Currently, the ''Noveltoons'' trademarks, characters and related elements, including the October 1950-1962 cartoons, are owned by Creator/{{Universal}} Studios through their [[Creator/DreamWorksAnimation [=DreamWorks=] Classics]] unit, as they acquired [=DreamWorks=] Animation in 2016. Universal also owns their own Golden Age cartoons and characters created by Creator/WalterLantz, making them the second studio along with Creator/WarnerBros to own multiple Golden Age cartoon libraries from other studios (Warner Bros. owns the MGM cartoon library as well as Paramount's ''ComicStrip/{{Popeye}}'' cartoons through Turner Entertainment). Ironically, Universal also owns most of Paramount's pre-November 1949 sound features through the InNameOnly unit, EMKA, Ltd. As for the pre-October 1950 cartoons, Paramount managed to retrieve them in 1999, when NTA's successor, Republic Pictures, was merged with Paramount by parent Creator/{{Viacom}} (which acquired Republic's parent, [[Creator/AaronSpelling Spelling Entertainment]], in 1994 thanks to its' merger with Blockbuster); however, many of them have since fallen into the public domain.

''Noveltoons'' was a long running anthology series of animated cartoons produced by the Creator/{{Paramount}} Pictures cartoon outlet FamousStudios from [[UsefulNotes/TheGoldenAgeOfAnimation 1943]] to the close of the studio in [[UsefulNotes/TheDarkAgeOfAnimation 1967]]. WesternAnimation/CasperTheFriendlyGhost, WesternAnimation/HermanAndKatnip, WesternAnimation/LittleAudrey, and WesternAnimation/BabyHuey all got their start from this series. It was the successor series to the ''WesternAnimanion/ColorClassics'' series produced by Creator/FleischerStudios (indeed, several Noveltoons would feature characters who originated in ''Color Classics''). This series was also very similar to the two series from Warner Bros., WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes and [[WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes Merrie Melodies]], in that it features several recurring characters under one umbrella title.
