List of Walt Disney Mini-Classics video releases

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.

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.

November 1989
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.

December 1992
Pre-May 1989 titles in this batch were re-issued in this month of 1992 with Proof of Purchase tab labels in very strange text fonts printed below the back covers, to coincide with the video release of "Noises Off". On this batch of titles, the Mini-Classics logo is omitted from the front tape label if it is a horizontal ink-label.

October 1995
"The Small One" was re-issued in this month of 1995 as a standard title with a new tape label to coincide with the video release of "The Santa Clause".
