I was wondering if anyone had a link to a copy of that film, maybe YouTube.....or something..i checked already, but figured i'd ask here as well.. Thanks Again..Fellow LP'ers...I know yall wont let me down.

(Then again, my tapes are all still shrink-wrapped). They came in a purple cardboard slipcase box. The video tapes all say "Not for individual sale" on them. The set also included The Reluctant Dragon and Frank and Ollie. I'm sure with all the people out there who no longer care to hold onto their VHS tapes, you could probably find one for sale. Good luck!

That film, made for the 100 Years of Magic "celebration", was called One Man's Dream, I believe. It is somewhat similar to the previous film, but made with updated technology. The Walt Disney Story film was once shown as a part of the Walt Disney Story exhibits, and for a time with subsequent exhibits in those spaces, on Main Street at Disneyland and Walt Disney World. The film was released on VHS a few years back, which I have, and was released as a "100 Years of Magic" edition on DVD during the time of that celebration. The DVD has a few extras. You might find it on ebay, or check Amazon.com, as you might find a second party seller that has it. Good luck!

6	DBitz2 Wed 9/19/2007 5:20p	Yeah, I think the version on DVD that I have is a little different than the VHS one. For anyone insterested, I looked on Amazon.com and both new and used VHS copies are available for as little as under $3.00 from section party sellers. Just do a VHS search under "The Walt Disney Story". No DVD copies came up, but, it's possible they could at some point.
