Directors for each short are noted. Several Andy Panda cartoons produced in 1940, 1941, and 1942 carry no director credit; Walter Lantz claims to have directed these shorts himself. Six Andy Panda cartoons (Life Begins for Andy Panda, Knock-Knock, Fish Fry, Apple Andy, The Bandmaster, and Scrappy Birthday) along with Musical Moments from Chopin and Banquet Busters were released in The Woody Woodpecker and Friends Classic Cartoon Collection.
