== Winnie-the-Pooh Titles with Proof of Purchase Tab Label ==
In order for the VHS releases of the four WTP featurettes to have the generic Helvetica font Proof of Purchase tab-label (or the Times font on "The Blustery Day"), what is the earliest print date to do so?
 
I saw a factory-sealed copy of "The Honey Tree", with the Proof of Purchase tab label. The barcode sticker states it shipped May 1, 1991. I have proof [https://www.ebay.com/p/3144523 here].
 
So, what would be the earliest print date for a Winnie The Pooh featurette Mini-Classics tape to have the generic Helvetica-font Proof-of-Purchase tab label? [[Special:Contributions/69.85.235.46|69.85.235.46]] 18:55, 25 May 2022 (UTC)
 
== The Small One ==
The only ink-label I saw for "The Small One" was the vertical ink-label from either 1994 or 1995. So, where’s the proof they released a horizontal ink-label of this in 1992?

* Articles I found while Googling keywords related to Disney's Christmas 1992 promotion. It might have still used the sticker label, though, I'll have to investigate further. --[[User:IlCattivo25|IlCattivo25]] ([[User talk:IlCattivo25|talk]]) 21:44, 27 May 2022 (UTC)
 
That vertical ink label with the strange warning font on the label definitely had to have been 1994, because on eBay I just saw a copy of “The Dark Crystal” 1994 VHS with the same warning font on the label, and the print date appears to read either the 18th, or 19th of August 1994.

== The Prince and the Pauper ==
Later copies of "The Prince and the Pauper" 1991 VHS (I’m guessing after fall 1991) had the Mini-Classics logo, placed between the end of the film and the promo, and the copyright notice, after the promo, at the end. [https://youtu.be/JLWvzVFrg0U This video] appears to be the proof. [[Special:Contributions/2601:4C4:4000:A8C0:5099:5C29:7439:3978|2601:4C4:4000:A8C0:5099:5C29:7439:3978]] 01:07, 3 June 2022 (UTC)
 
== Once Upon a Mouse ==
If they ever released the documentary film, ''Once Upon a Mouse'' (1981) on VHS in North America, it would probably have been released in this series, and the release date would probably have been September 20, 1991, the same date ''The Rescuers Down Under'' came out on home video in the Black Diamond Classics series. And I think the contents would’ve been like this:
 
Opening:
# Red-orange warning screens (1984-1991) (Goudy Old Style font variant)
# Walt Disney Home Video logo (1986-2001) ("Sorcerer Mickey")
# Walt Disney Mini-Classics logo (1988-1993)
# Buena Vista Distribution logo (1979-1984)
 
Closing:
# Walt Disney Home Video logo (1986-2001) (fade-shortened, with Brian Cummings saying, "Coming from Walt Disney Home Video.")
# The Rescuers Down Under video preview
 
The tape itself would have either a horizontal ink-label or a vertical sticker-label, with the Mini-Classics logo and the Sorcerer Mickey next to the WDHV logo on the label.
 
Why this never happened at all, I have absolutely no idea.
