==Something I noticed when you uploaded the opening and closing to your 1991 VHS re-release of the 1989 Chip ‘N’ Dale’s Rescue Rangers volume, “Double Trouble” to YouTube.== |
|||
I noticed that your opening and closing to that tape has the tape audio in linear instead of hi-fi. Did your copy come that way or did you set the audio track to linear? Because if your copy came that way, what tape speed was it duplicated in? SP or LP? |
|||
Another question, was your copy of that tape printed with a vertical sticker-label, or a horizontal ink-label? Or what type of label on the front was it printed out of?

To answer your questions, I think my copy was duplicated in that way, and it uses the horizontal ink-label. |

:Then what tape speed was your copy duplicated in, now that it was duplicated to only have a linear track? SP or LP? [[Special:Contributions/2601:4C4:4000:A8C0:1598:888D:624D:AD9E|2601:4C4:4000:A8C0:1598:888D:624D:AD9E]] 02:29, 19 March 2022 (UTC) |

There was nothing on the cassette or its case that said anything about the tape speed, so I can't say for certain. MrServoRetro, 11:04 PM, March 18, 2022 (EST) |

:Weird. That probably made most people assume the tape would have been in SP, especially since LP tapes usually had the words “LP Mode” on the back case. Even Paramount tapes that were in EP/SLP would have had the words “Duplicated in EP/SLP” or the Master Sharp logo and Rank Video Services references on the back case. By the way, were the bottom label printings on your copy, including the print date, printed on ink or a yellow or white sticker? Was there a barcode next to them? [[Special:Contributions/2601:4C4:4000:A8C0:1598:888D:624D:AD9E|2601:4C4:4000:A8C0:1598:888D:624D:AD9E]] 03:36, 19 March 2022 (UTC) |

There was nothing else on the bottom spine other than the print date. This copy was printed in April 3, 1995. MrServoRetro, 12:16 AM, March 19, 2022 (EST) |
|||
:So the print date on your copy was an ink print instead of a sticker? [[Special:Contributions/2601:4C4:4000:A8C0:1598:888D:624D:AD9E|2601:4C4:4000:A8C0:1598:888D:624D:AD9E]] 04:40, 19 March 2022 (UTC) |

Yes, and it appeared to be duplicated at Technicolor. MrServoRetro, 12:41 AM, March 19, 2022 (EST) |

==About the Neon Mickey VHS release of “Alice in Wonderland”== |
|||
If you have the Neon Mickey release of “Alice in Wonderland”, is your copy the original 1981 VHS, the 1982 VHS re-release or the 1983 VHS re-release? Is your copy of that tape a Canadian print or a US print? [[Special:Contributions/2601:4C4:4000:A8C0:5D2:A0B8:1D2A:7906|2601:4C4:4000:A8C0:5D2:A0B8:1D2A:7906]] 17:05, 19 March 2022 (UTC) |

My copy is apparently a 1982/83 re-release. The title is black on the tape label, and the print date reads June 1, 1983. MrServoRetro, March 19, 2022, 1:20 PM (EST) |
|||
:So I’m guessing you have the US print. Is the print date on a blue S/T sticker or white VCA sticker? Is the sticker print date info printed on the bottom spine of the cassette or the tape guard? Is the tape guard colored tan or black? [[Special:Contributions/2601:4C4:4000:A8C0:5D2:A0B8:1D2A:7906|2601:4C4:4000:A8C0:5D2:A0B8:1D2A:7906]] 18:41, 19 March 2022 (UTC) |

The print date is on a VCA sticker, the tape guard is coloured tan with "For Sale Only Not Intended for Rental" engraved on it in white, and before you ask, this copy has the "Walt Disney and You" promo at the end. MrServoRetro, March 19, 2022, 3:07 PM (EST) |
|||
:Is the VCA sticker on the guard or the bottom spine? [[Special:Contributions/2601:4C4:4000:A8C0:5D2:A0B8:1D2A:7906|2601:4C4:4000:A8C0:5D2:A0B8:1D2A:7906]] 19:28, 19 March 2022 (UTC) |

The sticker is on the tape guard. MrServoRetro, March 19, 2022, 3:29 PM (EST) |

==Earliest Walt Disney Mini-Classics tapes with Ink Labels== |
|||
Are there any pre-1990 Mini-Classics tapes that you have with the 1991-1992 later ink-label as completely opposed to the old oversized Betamax-styled sticker-label? Particularly ones that utilize updated masters? [[Special:Contributions/2600:387:C:7114:0:0:0:B|2600:387:C:7114:0:0:0:B]] 02:04, 21 March 2022 (UTC) |

:No, none of the pre-1990 Mini-Classics tapes in my collection have ink labels. The only tapes I own that have those labels are "Peter and the Wolf," "The Prince and the Pauper," and the 1993 copies of "Winnie the Pooh and the Blustery Day" and "Winnie the Pooh and a Day for Eeyore."
