Rights
Paramount Pictures held the video rights to the special for a number of years. The special's current owner, Classic Media, now also owns most of Paramount's short subjects (mostly animated, with some live-action) released between October 1950 and March 1962 through its purchase of Harvey Comics (this also included rights to many of the original characters created by Famous Studios before 1959, such as Casper the Friendly Ghost).

Famous quotes containing the word rights:
“... the Black woman in America can justly be described as a slave of a slave.”
—Frances Beale, African American feminist and civil rights activist. The Black Woman, ch. 14 (1970)
“Human beings have rights, because they are moral beings: the rights of all men grow out of their moral nature; and as all men have the same moral nature, they have essentially the same rights. These rights may be wrested from the slave, but they cannot be alienated: his title to himself is as perfect now, as is that of Lyman Beecher: it is stamped on his moral being, and is, like it, imperishable.”
—Angelina Grimké (18051879)
“Since womans rights have come up a young woman is better able to fight her own battle.”
—Anthony Trollope (18151882)
