I'm really not sure what Disney is trying to do here. They've been giving us the outstanding Disney Treasures Sets in waves but then also releasing many of the same toons on other DVDs. Take this Vintage Mickey set. Great toons to be sure, but Seven of the nine toons are already on the Mickey in Black & White volume one. The other two toons, "The Castaway" and "Mickey's Steamroller" are on Mickey in Black & White volume two.

Now, the first volume is out of print evidently but you can still find it on the secondary market. I've even still seen it in a local Mediaplay store. I'd highly recommend those two sets for any Mickey or Disney fan over shelling out the cash for this lower rent DVD.

While this does have vintage Mickey toons from 1928's Steamboat Willie to 1935's Mickey's Service Station, I would not call these the best 9 tunes of that era. I would have put "The Gorilla Mystery" and "The Dognapper" in there before some of these others. It's a good set but I recommend picking up the two Disney Treasures sets if you are a real die-hard fan.

I was hoping for a great collection of vintage and rare Mickey Mouse cartoons. That's not what I got. Steam Boat Willy was shown with a large black boarder surrounding the cartoon. I assume it was so the entire frame could be seen. Cartoons two and three were complete rare sound films. However the remaining cartoons were not original prints. The openings were created electronically. The cartoons were very enjoyable but don't expect a collection of all original prints.

My 10 year old loves watching vintage cartoons. This was perfect for him, and his younger brothers like watching cartoons that were around even before their grandparents :)

This DVD is definately the best! I had always wanted Disney's Vinatge. And in case any of those reading these reviews, these movies or clips of Disney are some of the originals from the 1930's. That's part of the reason it is vintage. I am sorry that people cannot appreciate the Artistry and imagination of this DVD without the fancy probes and lasers etc of today. This is truly a great DVD!

I love Vintage Mickey! It clearly shows where he was born, what his basic personality traits are, and where it all started! Definitely 5 Stars!

My six year old loves these cartoons and watches them again and again. Still terrific after all these years!

the Most famous mouse of all time can be experienced in this classic cartoon dvd featuring the legendary "Steamboat Willie" and other classics like "Plane Crazy" and "the Karnival Kid" 9 cartoons of Mickey's adventures is a no doubt must have for Disney fans, featuring his sweetheart Minnie and his pal, Pluto, not much of Goofy & Donald. Buy this DVD of Walt's genius storytelling of a mouse's adventures. Written on the very day of his birth. November 18, 1928

The mouse rules!
It's got it all! Timeless!
Keeps you smiling all day.
