"I yam what I yam, " Popeye says. And what he yam is the greatest swabbie ever to sail the cartoon seas, a savvy old salt with outsized forearms and an even larger sense of fair play.

Step aboard, mates, for 60 of the bestest with the mostest: original (and uproarious) Theatrical Shorts from the innovative Max Fleischer Cartoon Studio. Here you'll find spindly Olive Oyl, burger opportunity Wimpy, lil Swee-pea, brooding Bluto - even a pair of rare, full-color, two-reel extravaganzas that received top billing in some movie houses. And you'll find Popeye in all his muttering, spinach-chomping, Bluto-bashing, crowd-pleasing greatness. He yam what he yam. He's Popeye the Sailor Man. Toot-toot!
