This is an old list from January 2007, with 17 Alice Comedies that I knew of and what DVDs they were from (Disney Rarities, Inkwell Images, VCI, or I Love Cartoon).

I found an article from a few years ago that referred to Alice's Spanish Guitar being found and raisning the number to 37. I know I have seen the list somewhere before - likely golden age cartoons forum or kanimation history forum.

"New" silent Disney cartoons do turn up from time to time. ALICE'S SPANISH GUITAR is at George Eastman House today. The Laugh-O-Gram GOLDILOCKS turned up at MoMA under an assumed name (the Laugh-O-Grams were retitled when their then-owner rereleased them with sound in 1929). OZZIE OF THE MOUNTED was discovered in two partial prints and reconstructed, whereas TALL TIMBER turned up in the Norwegian national film archives.

Oh, I see what you are saying. I was so happy to get a copy of that favorite that I didn't think of the bigger picture.Mr. Toad wrote:I think this is actually bad news. I would of liked to seen all of the People and Places. I know it was on the list of proposed 08 Treasures but Leonard Maltin said several items had been rejected so I am worried.humphreybear wrote:PEOPLE AND PLACES: DISNEYLAND U.S.A.
I have this on vhs tape and I really like it - it is a color version of some of the early disneyland footage that was shown on the disneyland tv show in black and white.

The Adventures of Oswald The Lucky Rabbit This double disc set features the legendary and rarely-seen Oswald, Walt Disney’s first big animated star (predating Mickey Mouse), who recently returned home to the Walt Disney Company. Produced from 1926 to 1928 with Walt’s personal touch, this collection of some of these silent shorts are revitalized with brand-new musical scores by well-known silent film accompanist and composer Robert Israel . Several of the shorts offer audio commentary from Animation Film Historians Leonard Maltin, Mark Kausler and Jerry Beck. Bonus features include:
“The Hand Behind the Mouse”: Full-length documentary about legendary cartoon director/animator, Ub Iwerks. He was Walt’s first employee, as well as Oswald and Mickey’s first animator, and subsequently became one of the unsung heroes of Disney animation. Narrated by Kelsey Grammer, this documentary was made by Ub’s granddaughter, Academy Award®-nominated filmmaker Leslie Iwerks.
Oswald Comes Home”: Tells how Oswald came back to the Disney studios. Features new interviews with Bob Iger, Roy Disney and Diane Disney Miller.
“The Work of Ub Iwerks”: Six examples of the unique creations of Ub Iwerks, before and after Oswald, are featured (a newly restored Steamboat Willie among them).

Thanks Icahbod. I really like the scores Robert Israel has done on some other silent stuff like Harold Lloyd. That is good news.

Doesn't the third volume only contain 30 animated shorts?
My one and only love, DISNEY.

Excellent news! Thanks for passing that on. So, five down, one to go... or was there a scintilla of truth to those rumours that Jack And The Beanstalk exists in private hands somewhere?ramapith wrote:The Laugh-O-Gram GOLDILOCKS turned up at MoMA under an assumed name (the Laugh-O-Grams were retitled when their then-owner rereleased them with sound in 1929).
Nice to see Alice Gets Stung and Alice In The Wooly West making their DVD debuts on the Oswald Treasure (alongside Alice's Balloon Race, which was on the VCI set). That makes 21 Alices on DVD out of the 40 which survive, for those of you who have lost count.

I'm surprised neither "Crazy With the Heat" nor "Toy Tinkers" have been put on the From the Vault section. The former should've been included there for its showing of a translucent, scimitar-packing Arab, the latter for excessive gun-play. I think "Toy Tinkers" should've been seen there instead of "Bee At the Beach"!
On an unrelated matter, did you know that the aforementioned Arab is voiced by Paul Frees? That's right, he's voiced by the same actor that would go on to do LOTS of voices for Disney, including, but certainly not limited to, Ludwig Von Drake and the Haunted Mansion's Ghost Host.
And Ronald Colman, who does Donald's fake voice in "Donald's Dream Voice", also does the voice of Donald's doppelganger from "Donald's Double Trouble", which was on Donald 2.

I think must be just cross-talk from Goldie Locks turning up. I recall reading somewhere, around the time that Ray Pointer's DVD came out, that a (unnamed) Laugh-O-gram had turned up in private hands, but that the print was unable to be sourced for the DVD. There was a bit of speculation on which title it was, which would explain the confusion.ramapith wrote:Yikes, where'd you hear those rumors?MK Sharp wrote:So, five down, one to go... or was there a scintilla of truth to those rumours that Jack And The Beanstalk exists in private hands somewhere?
I haven't heard anything about that one being rediscovered.
I'll take your word as definitive on this matter.

You know what would be a cool Treasure for Wave eight? "The Package Features." Unedited and restored versions of Saludos Amigos, The Three Caballeros, Make Mine Music, Fun and Fancy Free, Melody Time and The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad.
The features aren't very long and three could fit on each disc. Maltin could present some documentaries about the reasons the studio made these films, historical context etc. Throw in Susie and Casey Bats Again as bonus shorts and I think you would have a nice treasure.
Granted, I don't own the package features and I'm sure plenty of collectors do, but to have all six of them in one collection, restored and uncut would be rad.
