List of animated films in the public domain in the United States

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The following is a list of animated films in the public domain in the United States for which there is a source to verify its status as public domain under the terms of U.S. copyright law. For more information, see List of films in the public domain in the United States. Films published before 1931 are not included because all such films are in the public domain (Note: while the film in and of itself may be in the public domain, the original versions may incorporate elements that remain under a separate copyright).

Some shorts listed here, such as the Private Snafu series, were produced for the United States government. Because they were produced for the U.S. government, they automatically fall into the public domain.

Warner Bros. Pictures

Every short from 1930 has entered the public domain as of 2026.

Looney Tunes

All black-and-white films were owned by Warner Bros. subsidiary Sunset Productions, while all color films were owned by United Artists through Associated Artists Productions. Crowing Pains (1947) was improperly registered and renewed as "Growing Pains", which isn't the title of the film, making its copyright invalidated due to clerical errors.[2]
