First National Pictures (1928–1929)

It is unknown if new Felix cartoons were produced during this period or if First National only redistributed earlier Felix cartoons.

Sound films

Copley Pictures (1929–1930)

Copley Pictures was the first distributor to issue Felix cartoons with sound. There were 12 originally with sound, and 16 reissues, for a total of 28 cartoons.

Sound reissues

A number of silent Felix cartoons were also re-issued by Copley at this time, with their intertitles removed and sound added. Newer simple titles were also inserted in most reissues and the lines of the characters were cut, which removed signs of Educational Pictures copyrights. Jacques Kopfstein was hired by Pat Sullivan to add sound to the film, a practice common in the end of the silent film era, with films that received such treatment known to some as "goat glands". All Felix shorts that were re-issued in sound have post-synchronized soundtracks. As a result, the synchronization is not perfect, and there is occasionally an audible delay between the action and the sound effect.
