The Chronological Donald, Volume Two
This set covers the second leg of Donald Duck's long career, starting from 1942 to 1946, covering World War II in the process. The Japanese, French, Italian and German releases of this set only contains 29 of the 32 shorts available on the American release. The shorts left off were Commando Duck, Der Fuehrer's Face and Donald's Crime. The omission of the first two shorts was most likely due to World War II propaganda against both nations as they were both enemy nations to the United States during the war, but the omission of the last one probably more due to mistake, as all versions of The Great Mouse Detective DVD include it. The Chronological Donald, Volume Two did not receive the beautiful restoration of Volume One. Prints are worn and the image quality is visibly worse than all earlier Disney Treasures Volumes.
125,000 sets produced.
