Walt Disney Treasures

The Walt Disney Treasures is a collection of two-disc DVD sets of classic Disney cartoons. They cover work from the studio's earliest days to their more recent work. So far, there have been nine "waves" (series) of the DVDs, each containing two, three or four different sets (for a total of thirty titles).

The first wave was released to Region 1 DVD on December 4, 2001, as a part of Walt Disney's 100th birthday. They were sold in limited quantities. The numbered units are largely commercially unavailable outside of second-hand sales. Only a handful of these titles have been sold outside of Region 1.

Each title has been packaged in a numbered tin case. The first two waves featured numbers stamped into each case, while subsequent waves contained certificates of authenticity marking their numbers. The first three waves were bound in a cardboard sleeve displaying the reproduced signatures of Leonard Maltin and Roy Disney. In 2003, a Costco exclusive boxed set called The Ultimate Disney Treasure Chest presented the first two waves of the series, without the tin canisters (as pictured).

The DVD sets were the idea of film critic–historian Leonard Maltin, who appears in each set to introduce the DVDs, and to provide historical context to some of the more dated, and potentially offensive, works.
