Like the other studios, MGM reissued and edited its cartoons when re-released to theaters. Finally, 19 cartoons were produced in widescreen CinemaScope format only. Four cartoons were produced for both Academy Ratio and CinemaScope formats (2.55:1, later 2.35:1). Most of these cartoons were produced in the standard Academy ratio (1.37:1). Quimby retired in 1955 and from 1955 to 1957, Hanna and Barbera produced the shorts until MGM closed the cartoon studio in 1957, and the last cartoon was released in 1958. Rudolf Ising was the producer of Puss Gets the Boot subsequent cartoons were produced by Fred Quimby through 1955. All cartoons were released to theaters by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. The following 114 cartoons were directed by William Hanna and Joseph Barbera at the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer cartoon studio in Hollywood, California.
After The Midnight Snack was released in 1941, it was very successful and Barbera and Hanna would work on many Tom and Jerry cartoons such as The Night Before Christmas, The Yankee Doodle Mouse, The Zoot Cat, Quiet Please!, The Milky Waif, The Cat Concerto, Old Rockin' Chair Tom, The Little Orphan, Jerry's Cousin, The Two Mouseketeers, Johann Mouse, Pecos Pest, Blue Cat Blues, and Tot Watchers. They held a contest which was won by animator John Carr, who suggested that the cat and mouse should be named Tom and Jerry. Meanwhile, Barbera and Hanna decided to change the name of Jasper and Jinx. But since Puss Gets the Boot became so popular, Quimby changed his mind and let them work on more Jasper and Jinx cartoons.īabera and Hanna began working on another Jasper and Jinx cartoon, The Midnight Snack. Since the studio wanted a wider variety of cartoons, Fred Quimby (The sales executive of the MGM Cartoon Studio), did not want Barbera and Hanna to make another Jasper and Jinx cartoon. This cartoon would feature Jasper and Jinx, early versions of Tom And Jerry. In 1940, Barbera and Hanna helped create Puss Gets the Boot, an academy award nomination. Barbera and Hanna also worked with Tex Avery, a former Looney Tunes employee. He went to Los Angeles and joined the studio, and worked with William Hanna, whose desk was opposite to his. In 1937, he was lured to the new Metro Goldwyn Mayer cartoon studio by a salary increase. When the Van Beuren Studios closed down in 1936, he moved to Paul Terry's Terrytoon Studio.

Barbera took art classes at the Art Students League of New York and the Pratt institute.
During the Great Depression, he worked as a cartoonist in the magazines Redbook, Saturday Evening Post, and Collier's, where he drew single cartoons.
