From the archive
The "Fritz und Fratz" cartoons were made by Johann Weichberger from Austria, i can confirm that, but know nothing more about him. There was at first a series of 4 parts, released about 1939 or 1940, with the titles: Die blinden Passagiere (The Blind Passengers), No. IV / 12 Der Spuk an Bord (Spook aboard) No. IV / 13 Die wilde Jagd (The Wild Hunt) No. IV / 14 Die kleinen Helden (The Little Heroes) No. IV / 15 This four spliced together gave a complete film. Shortly after there was a second series: Onkel Steffen in Seenot, No. V / 12 (title unknown) No. V / 13 (title unknown), No. V / 14 (title unknown), No. V / 15 Later were another 2 titles released: Jumbo als Retter, No. Vi / 14 Die Landung im Wunderland, No. VI / 15 and there was another sequel, probably released 1944: Der geheimnisvolle Tempel, No. VIII / 10 I'm not shure, if the series were continued, but probably not. One staff member of Degeto, Mr. Müller, launched his own firm after the war in Munich, called GLOBUS-Film. He released similar home movies in blue and silver cardboard boxes, beginning in 1950. He sold also the french film-office home movies in Germany.
