Felix the Cat (partially lost episodes of animated series; 1959-1962)

The show's title card.

Status: Partially Lost

Felix the Cat is a cartoon character created during the the silent era of film in 1919 by Paramount Pictures. His creator is often disputed but is most commonly attributed to Pat Sullivan. In 1959, Felix the Cat was turned into a made-for-television series of cartoons by Trans-Lux, after Otto Messmer (then and present owner of Felix) retired from making comic strips and was approached by his assistant, Jon Oriolo, to make the character into a TV show. Oriolo gave Felix the traits that he is now well known for, such as his magic bag of tricks and his chipper personality. Episodes were divided into two parts, an opener and a closure. The first episode started a story, while the next ended it.

According to Wikipedia, a total of 126 episodes were produced, but only the first 98 of them are available on DVD and only the first 72 episodes in other media. These episodes have not been re-aired since the 1990s.

Status

The remaining episodes' whereabouts are unknown to this day, but some episodes do have their own given titles. Several of these episodes have been found on various streaming sites, labelled as Episodes 73-79. Still, due to conflicting information and a lack of sources, it is unclear if these numbers are correct. There is a possibility that prints of the missing episodes are still existent, and Paramount does not retain a copy themselves, but it is unknown if this is the case.

Episodes

#	Episode Title	Status	Extra Notes
1	The Sea Monster and Felix	Found
2	The Diamond Tree	Found
3	The Leprechaun King	Found	Though the footage may appear as previously used footage from "The Capturing of The Leprechaun", it appears that way because they are the same episode; it was simply reused. Proof of this can be seen simply by observing that the openings are changed, in addition to the tone and that Felix is no longer reading a newspaper like in the earlier episodes, but instead a comic book of himself. The title, too, is a glaring piece of proof that this is the sought-after episode.
