Walt Disney Showcase

    (Gold Key, 1970-1980)
© Walt Disney Productions

Walt Disney Showcase ran from 1970 to 1980. This was a high point for Walt Disney movie-making, and the series showcased the various productions as they came out. Included were features on Swiss Family Robinson, Bedknobs and Broomsticks, Unidentified Flying Oddball, The Black Hole, and many others. Naturally, there was always room for Disney’s cartoon features, and Mickey Mouse, Pluto, Goofy, and the rest of the gang were frequent guests in this series.
