Walt Disney Home Video Intro-Cartoon Classics Limited Gold Edition (1984)

1:08 That is actually Ub Iwerks drawing Mickey and Minnie, but it appears they edited a photo of Walt at the drawing desk in order to make it look like it was HE and not Ub drawing the characters.

@ladyjaye27 So did I, that was Disney.

Disney doesn't belong to Hannah Montana, Jonas Brothers, and all that other pop music garbage. They ruin the Disney name.

And the rest after Mickey is history. :)

I used to have the Mickey VHS of this. The Songs used at the ending montage are "Dreams Come True," leading to "Someday, My Prince Will Come." And it included stills of characters like Mickey, Donald, Minnie, Maleficent, Christopher Robin, and others.

@YoshiAngemon They even have Brer Rabbit and Brer Bear from "Song of the South"!

Who is that nasty looking woman that appears at the end of this segment?

[GarrettCRW]

@Jac2Mac It's Madame Medusa from The Rescuers.

[Jac2Mac]

@GarrettCRW What made her so nasty in The Rescuers and were there any scenes where she was happy or not?

I used to rent the Gold Edition VHS tapes as a kid, so this really bring back memories...

And indeed, it is the rather inaccurate version that kinda omits mentioning how the original Disney mice (and the general style of his cartoons) were just a copycat from Paul Terry's Terrytoons and, of course, no love for Ub Iwerks...

I have this item recorded on tape (on the Donald VHS).

@disneyfan85 Same here, but on the Daisy VHS. It was actually an error copy that after the first couple minutes or so (at 0:54) it skips back to the very beginning (black screen followed by FBI warning) but otherwise the tape is just fine. My favorite episode on that tape was the one with the bear cubs (titled "Dumb Bell of the Yukon").

[disneyfan85]

@BKDBrian2 The Donald video apparently had an error as well, in which after the intro footage (and before the first cartoon (titled "Donald's Cousin Gus")), there is no title card with the name of this video on it.
