Revision as of 18:15, 19 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.

Starting in this month of 1989, the Winnie the Pooh featurettes on home video became part of this series. This was to ride on the coattails of the video release of "Bambi". In fact, an insert booklet that comes with the "Bambi" video release advertises the titles released in this batch.
On the Winnie the Pooh titles released in this batch, copies prior to September 1989 use the 10-second freezing cut-out Mini-Classics logo variation, while copies printed after use the 2-second freezing fade-out variation.
