Bob Clampett: Available on DVD and BD

Happy belated Easter!
A Daffy-inspired "Ducktator" trespassing on "no-hen's land" in Clampett's WHAT PRICE PORKY? (1938)
Better late than never: After letting both Marc Davis' and Frank Tashlin's centennial pass without notice, I hereby launch my promised countdown to Bob Clampett's centennial later this year.

More than half of Clampett's Warner Brothers cartoons have been made available on DVD and BD in recent years through The Looney Tunes Golden and Platinum Collections. However, they are scattered across more than a dozen different discs. So for starters I have compiled a chronological list of all available cartoons with indications where to find them:
