Line 1:
I'm assuming that Video Cassette Duplicating Corp.'s Marina Del Rey, CA plant was responsible for these printings. Presumably, the "60" is the nominal tape length (LP mode I guess?).
 
I own the 1991 VHS release of this film, from Burbank Video (at the time, Burbank Video was distributed by Video Treasures as Viking Entertainment became an in-name only unit from Handleman Company which acquired Viking in 1987-88 and Video Treasures in 1988-89), and although it has a newer video master (Blue tracking control disclaimer, FBI warning and Burbank Video logo ft. "Ruslan and Ludmila") and a newer sticker face label (an odd one, though, as it has a copyright date (unlike post-1991the copiesusual ofsticker Burbanklabels Videoor releasessilkscreen-inked thatlabels usedof either a silkscreenpost-inked1991 labelpressings orof themost usualBurbank stickerVideo labelreleases) it is small and the Burbank Video logo there looks more like the Video Treasures logo), it reuses the 1988 Viking/Troy Gold packaging cover.
 
I’d also like to point out that this 1988 release of "The Little Princess" was not the only VHS under Viking's short-lived Troy Gold label to steal GoodTimes Home Video's tracking control disclaimer screen, as apparently, a 1988 VHS release of "It's a Wonderful Life" from Viking's Troy Gold label also stole GoodTimes Home Video's tracking control disclaimer (as confirmed by a logo video from that release uploaded to YouTube by The AVTB Archives). Plus, the GoodTimes Home Video prints of this film and that other film I'd also mentioned used different masters.

* According to The VCR from Heck on Tumblr, Goldstar not only stole the Troy Gold tape masters for their Goldrix division, but they also ripped the characters on the cases badly from Burbank Video’s ''50 Classic All Star Cartoons, Volume II'' front case, as well as the front cases of Simitar Entertainment’s ''Sing Along with Bugs Bunny'', ''Sing Along with Daffy Duck'', and ''Sing Along with Porky Pig''.

Magnum Video also stole Troy Gold and Burbank Video's tape masters for their cartoon releases from 1997 which were duplicated exclusively by CD Video Manufacturing. They even stole the cover art from them. Their cartoon releases don't even include a proper reference to Magnum Video, the covers solely refer to CD Video Manufacturing; the only way you can tell those releases were from Magnum Video is by the prefixes of the UPC codes on the back covers.

Also, Goldstar Video (when they were known as Goldstar Entertainment) also stole Turner Home Entertainment's tracking control screen for their Greatest Adventure Stories From the Bible releases. They also edited out both the Turner Home Entertainment and 1987 Turner logos that appeared after the FBI warning screen. HERE'S PROOF. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pjLprfT3miY
