This was nominated for an Academy Award, but lost to Knighty Knight Bugs; Bugs Bunny's only Academy Award win. Tiny Toons Adventures did a fun parody of Sydney's and what happened to Sydney afterwards in Who Bopped Bugs Bunny. Calling him Stanley the Elephant and voicing him by Jonathan Winters.
+Geoph C Stanley from the Tiny Toons episode was a cross between Sidney and Jerry Lewis. :) In a flashback scene, his 1950s cartoons are attributed to "Tish Tash", i.e. Frank Tashlin. While the real Tashlin didn't direct any Sidney cartoons, he was a cartoon director who went on to direct live action features starring Jerry Lewis, so it was an appropriate choice. :)
Originally released in December 1958 (and nominated for an Academy Award). At 0:27, the credit "supervising director GENE DEITCH" was supposed to appear, but it's been clipped from this print.
Michael Igafo-Te'o here: This Gene Deitch-directed CinemaScope Terrytoons Short Film features Sydney the Elephant and It was nominated for an Oscar but ultimately lost to the Friz Freleng-directed "Bugs Bunny" cartoon entitled "Knight Knight Bugs" and, yes, during the 1990's, Tiny Toons Adventures made a fun parody of The 1959 Academy Awards Ceremony (And Even when Gene Deitch and his family moved to Prague, Czechoslovakia under supervision by William L. Snyder of Rembrandt Films, too!) in a half-hour episode entitled "Who Bopped Bugs Bunny?" for "animator's sake"!
You know what else was nominated that year? Disney's Paul Bunyun. For some reason Disney kept losing in this category despite making some really nice work!
The cartoon is all right. But does anyone a else wonder why it was good enough to get an Oscar nomination? Could each studio only submit one cartoon? So the third nominee wouldn’t be as good as the rest?

today's the day this turns 11 years old
This print seems to have been cut to remove the credit of supervising director (and the character's creator) Gene Deitch.
More likely, it's a film splice due to wearing or the fact that projector issues chopped off that part.
Nominated for a Academy Award
Is there a DVD or Blu-ray were i can find the rest of these cartoons in this quality
No, no there isn't..

I'd choose this over that shitty Bugs Bunny cartoon anyday.
How come?
