Pics! We need pics!

(I'm still fuzzy on the whole "Black Diamond" thing. Are they among what's listed at Amazon?)

black diamond started with dumbo and ended with aladdin! so anything before aladdin is a black diamond. except features that were first time on video that were released under masterpiece and gold collection :D

Thanks for the pics, valmont :wink: .... but it's weird.... i didn't know those were black diamonds! those are the exact covers i have for my disneys.... (except for cinderella)! why the hell are they called black diamonds?!

now... hmm.... let's see.... i think that the robin hood art's the best! it's really special... you dont see that art often on movie covers/posters.

oh.... and i cant figure out how to insert images! :x
if anyone could explain this to me.... i'd be able to post lots of black diamond covers for all to see.... so... how-do-you-add-pictures??!!! :? :? :? :?

If you look at the spine of the case of a Black Diamond VHS, you will see at the top a Black Diamond with the words "The Classics" in it.

I like this game idea! :D My pick would be Cinderella; it's a gorgeous cover. :D That's one of the reasons I want Cinderella on DVD so badly-all of Cinderella's video and laserdisc covers as well as its movie posters have all been beautiful and I can't wait to see what they come up with for the DVD.

Gotta say Beauty and the Beast. Had it included the Rose on the cover, it would have been better than the Platinum Release Cover by far!
