Sometimes it’s fun to take a break from the serious stuff and have a laugh or two. Maybe today’s post will give you a good strong dose of nostalgia as well — but only if you’re over 55 or so. So for those of you who are getting older you can relive a little bit of your childhood and remember the way things used to be through some of the best cartoons ever made — like Popeye, Woody Woodpecker, Batty Boop and others.<\/p>\n

Take a ride on on our train to the past and watch some great cartoons. Take a break and maybe you’ll find yourself transported back to a simpler era, before the world got so impressed with itself.<\/p>\n

The following is from MakeUseOf.com — we hope you enjoy your nostalgic visit to the golden era of cartoons.<\/p>\n

Relive The Golden Age Of Animation With Free Vintage Cartoons [Stuff to Watch]<\/h3>\n

They just don\u2019t make \u2018em like they used to. Literally. The age-old technique of using hundreds of hand-drawn cels of animation to produce cartoons has long been replaced with more\u00a0robust digital techniques<\/a>. But like\u00a0photographs shot on film<\/a>\u00a0and vinyl recordings, traditional animation retains that warm and rustic feel where even the\u00a0imperfections are celebrated<\/a>\u00a0for their almost organic nature.<\/p>\n

Thanks to the\u00a0Internet Archive<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Film Chest<\/a>, there\u2019s a small collection of vintage cartoons to trawl through featuring the likes of Popeye, Woody Woodpecker, and Betty Boop.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/header>\n

All Aboard! The locomotive is ready to take you back in time — enjoy your trip on the Cloudeight Railway.Visit this page to watch some cartoons from the past<\/a><\/span><\/strong> — and maybe it will bring back memories — “…misty water-color memories, of the way we were…”<\/p>\n
