Revision as of 21:22, 29 May 2022
Walt Disney Mini-Classics was a video series of Disney animated featurettes, which ran from 1988 to 1993 and strangely, 1995. Each featurette ran about 25-40 minutes. This list covers all the Walt Disney Mini-Classics titles released from these date ranges.
Part of the Mini-Classics series (1988-1993)
May 1988
Due to the success of the Black Diamond Classics series, which launched in 1984, the Mini-Classics series was expected to be the big selling series from Disney at the time that it was launched, starting with a four-part offering topped off by “Mickey’s Magical World,” in honor of Mickey Mouse’s 60th birthday. The other three were “Mickey and the Beanstalk,” “Donald in Mathmagic Land” and “The Reluctant Dragon.” These first four titles do not have any promos at the end of the videos.
