They were perhaps best known (such as they were) for their "Just For Kids" imprint, featuring animated material broadcast in the United States, but also featuring original aquisitions such as the French animated series Clémentine, and various English-dubbed versions of Japanese anime (and even released the BBC's Postman Pat in the U.S.). It should be noted however, that most such productions reflected the times, being edited to reflect U.S. broadcast standards. Further, some, though not all TV series releases were edited into 1 or 2 compilation films (ex: the aforementioned Clémentine, plus "Wee Wendy" [original title: Tongari Boushi no Memoru]). Some series were never even finished. Bravestarr and his sidekick Thirty/Thirty BraveStarr was an animated space western made for children. ...
