Donald Duck gets his own entry in the increasingly popular Walt Disney Treasures line. The Chronological Donald, Volume One/manual-install-loki-mac.html. contains the first 36 Donald Duck shorts. Spanning seven years, these shorts were released at a time when the irascible duck was growing in popularity and upstaging the studio's first solidifed cartoon star, Mickey Mouse.

Like all Walt Disney Treasures, this set is presented in a double Alpha keepcase and housed in a silver tin. Inside, you'll find a certificate of authenticity, with the number of your indivdiual copy; just 165,000 of The Chronological Donald, Volume 1 sets were produced. An 8-page booklet contains some basic info on Walt Disney common to all Treasures, a list of contents, 2 pages of notes on this set from Leonard Maltin, and a page devoted to an animator's sketch from 'Beach Picnic.' There is also a collectible card reproducing theatrical poster art from the 1940 short 'Donald's Vacation.' The slip outside the tin erroneously lists the material as being originally released between '1936 and 1941' when the earliest shorts included are from 1934.

Disc One opens with Leonard Maltin's introduction (2:27), which puts 'Walt Disney's most explosive character' into context. Maltin explains that Donald's temper made him a scene-stealing alternative to good-natured characters Mickey Mouse and Goofy. Disc 1 contains the first 20 Donald Duck shorts from the 1930s, which you have to option to Play All chronologically. You can also choose individual shorts from a chronological or alphabetical listing.
