History

Golden Book Video was originally formed in 1985 by the Western Publishing Company to release videocassettes based on its library of Golden Books. Initially consisting of original animation, it was soon expanded with licensing agreements with DiC Animation City and ABC Video Enterprises in 1986.

In 1986, the company launched an educational division, Golden Step Ahead for educational material, and in 1987, Golden Book Video launched the GoldenVision label for general entertainment programming.

In 1991, the company bought out Hi-Tops Video from Heron Communications, and merged into Golden Book Video, alongside the GoldenVision branch. The name was retired in the mid-1990s, when Golden Books acquired Broadway Video's family entertainment division, and became Golden Books Family Entertainment.
