About the 1989 Chip N Dale Rescue Rangers volume, “Double Trouble”

If you have that tape, what copy of that tape do you have? The original 1989 VHS or the 1991 re-release? 2601:4C4:4000:A8C0:1598:888D:624D:AD9E 04:50, 19 March 2022 (UTC)

If I recall correctly, I have the original 1989 VHS. - Simas

Is your copy a Canadian or US print? Because if it’s a US copy, then what is the print date and/or day-year code (if there is one)? 2601:4C4:4000:A8C0:5D2:A0B8:1D2A:7906 18:47, 19 March 2022 (UTC)

My copy's the US copy, and the day-year code's 22789. (227th day of 1989, or August 15, 1989) - Simas

The 1989 release date according to Disney Wiki was September 28th. Your copy is probably an early pressing. By the way, does your copy have the phone dial-tones [DTMF signaling] at the beginning and end? Is there something on the left or right side of the tape like a white barcode sticker? 2601:4C4:4000:A8C0:5D2:A0B8:1D2A:7906 22:30, 19 March 2022 (UTC)

There is no barcode sticker on the tape itself, and it indeed does have the DTMF tones at the beginning and end. - Simas

About the Touchstone Pictures film, “Beaches”

If you still have the circa 1990s VHS of that film, what type of label on the front does your copy of that version have? Horizontal ink-label or vertical sticker-label? What is the print date on the circa 1990s VHS that you have? Not the original 1989 VHS, I mean the circa-1990s re-issue. 2601:4C4:4000:A8C0:91FF:1360:1587:A95F 02:26, 20 March 2022 (UTC)

I still have that tape, and it has the vertical sticker label, and it's printed on December 9, 1993.

Is the print date on a barcode sticker or an ink-print? Is “BVHV” engraved on the left or right side of the tape? Does this tape still have the 1984 red orange FBI warnings or is it an updated master with the green FBI warnings? What promo does your copy of that version have, if any? 2601:4C4:4000:A8C0:3597:4609:AC8A:D5C6 18:43, 20 March 2022 (UTC)
