Tom and Jerry: The Chuck Jones Collection is a two-disc DVD collection of animated short cartoons starring Tom and Jerry, produced by Chuck Jones, released on June 23, 2009 in the US and on September 21, 2009 in the UK. These are the same 34 cartoons that appear on European DVD collection in PAL format, Tom and Jerry - The Classic Collection, Vol. 6., released in 2004, albeit presented restored & remastered in the set, as opposed to the Turner TV broadcast prints used in the 2004 UK DVD.
All 34 of the Chuck Jones Tom and Jerry shorts are included, along with two new documentaries. The European DVDs, apart from the UK, do not have the documentaries. All versions of the set are matted in 1.75:1 widescreen, which gained some criticism as these were originally produced in the Academy ratio, similar to the notorious incorrect butchering of the CinemaScope films in the 1990s.

Notes/Trivia[]
- 11 seconds from the beginning of The Mouse from H.U.N.G.E.R., where Jerry watches an evil plan video of Tom, was edited to remove the quick flickering due to heightened concerns over causing epileptic seizures in viewers from quick cuts and rapid flashing.
- The Region 2 version uses the same contents from Region 1.
- On the iTunes release of the Chuck Jones Collection, the shorts are restored in full frame from the original theatrical formats.
