I need yer help finding out the titles of some old Disney tapes and/or animated short titles. Ok here's the dealio. Dealio? Yeah, I said it.
When I was a young 'un in the early eighties, my mom would let me rent these tapes over and over again. They were like the "best of" sort of thing. It was a Disney collection, tapes that came in the old plastic clam shell cases.
One was of Donald Duck. Specifically, I remember one cartoon on the tape where Donald was being harassed by a bee. I really remember a scene where Donald turns on the radio bu the bee is inside the radio, fooling The Don.
The other was of Chip n' Dale. I remember several foggy bits from that tape such as one where Donald was running a honey shop or something and one where Donald had the massive train set in the back yard. The train even went through a tree!
The other thing: I think Dad recorded this off The Wonderful World of Disney when it used to come on Sunday nights. The tape is long gone but I remember it was all Donald Duck and his nephews, huey, Dewey, and Louie.
I remember one where Donald was running an auto shop and one where all 4 went camping.
I spoke to the guy at the video store who new exactly what tapes I was talking about but he didn't have them. I'm about to emabark on a city-wide search of rental stores but would really like to purchase off eBay or something. I haven't seen and pictures on eBay that ring a bell though. None of the vhs tapes for sale look anything like what I remember.
I have been seeing what looks like a newer version of Cartoon Classics. Is that the same?
Don't be shy! If anyone knows what I'm talking about and can help me, PLEASE leave a comment. (I rarely check my email)
I've checked encyclopedias, message boards and plenty of folks seem to remember these cartoons but not the titles or the name of the tapes.
