I've a DD cartoon that's missing the main titles (or it could be a Mickey Mouse), he's a plumber, it features Pluto (he swallows a magnet), Donald gets caught in a washing machine, then he's pulled all over the house while holding a hammer by Pluto and the magnet, does anyone know what the title is.

"Donald and Pluto" - 1936
While released as a Mickey Mouse, Mickey does not appear.

Indeed. This was also one of those releases that seemed to be in abundance in colour / silent.
Some company, back in the 90's, bought a load up and added a main stripe, then added very badly synced sound and sold it as colour / sound, with added sound sticker!

Dear Rob,
Yes this looks like a re-recorded copy, but the sound is in perfect sync, and it's a very nice print too, I'll add it to my next lists.

And we all know who that company was!

Yes, but lovely prints and a very enjoyable short.
Barry, a good sync copy should be a winner. ![[Smile]](smile.gif)

Yes and I've got another rarity too, "Donald's Penguin" a 1939 short, pretty nice print, not sure where this one's come from though, as I've never seen a silent copy of this title. It'll be on my next lists.
