==Filmography== Of the original seven Laugh-O-Grams fairy tales, four were long known to have survived, and have been restored for DVD: ''Newman Laugh-O-Grams'' (1921), ''[[Little Red Riding Hood (1922 film)|Little Red Riding Hood]]'' (1922), ''The Four Musicians of Bremen'' (1922), ''[[Puss in Boots (1922 film)|Puss in Boots]]'' (1922), and ''Cinderella'' (1922). These shorts later became available on [[Blu-ray Disc]] as bonus features for Disney's ''[[Beauty and the Beast (1991 film)|Beauty and the Beast]]''. ''[[Tommy Tucker's Tooth]]'' (1922) and ''[[Alice's Wonderland]]'' (1923) are also available on DVD, and ''Alice's Wonderland'' eventually became a bonus feature for the ''60th Anniversary Blu-ray Edition'' of ''[[Alice in Wonderland (1951 film)|Alice in Wonderland]]''.
