An episode depicting Tweeg, L.B. and piles of old books was in pre-production at Atkinson Film Arts in Ottawa around Christmas 1986, with scripts trickling slowly into the layout and posing departments. Some bored posers began putting silly and risque titles to the books, expecting they would be deleted later, when the scenes were animated in Korea. A month hence, the Korean rushes returned to Ottawa and the scenes were screened to the sponsors. To everyone's shock and to Atkinson's chagrin, it was clear these inappropriate book titles remained until this point of the product. Korean animators could not understand English and didn't realize these titles were meant as a temporary joke. Atkinson's ate the cost of repairing the scenes, yet portions of the bogus titles remain in the final cut.
I found this at the Trivia section at the IMDB - What episode could this be??

This is a strange bit of trivia. I've seen this particular bit before, but I've also read that it also supposedly occured in the library of King Nogbert's castle.
I can't think of any episodes right off hand that involve Tweeg, LB, and a bunch of books, but I need to go back and rewatch the Nogbert Castle vs. Gutang arc to see if I can find any of these titles.
Hee, I love easter egg hunts!

Doesn't "The Medicine Wagon" start off with a shot of several books in Tweeg's Tower?

Perhaps "Tweeg Gets the Tweezles"? - all three elements featured there.

I'm going through my old VHS copies from the 80s to figure it out. I need to save it to my comp and zoom to be sure, but so far "Tweeg Gets the Tweezles" AND "Medicine Wagon" have books with writing on them.
I'll let you know what I find.

It's actually one of the episodes at King Noghburt's castle, but I can't instantly remember which episode it was.
