Donald Duck & Uncle Scrooge's Money Rocket

Walt Disney Little Gem record, 45 RPM, Manufactured in Canada by RCA Victor Company, LTD, 1961

Here is a neat record I picked up on a trip downtown last week. It is Donald Duck and Uncle Scrooge's Money Rocket - A Fun Story. This is a Walt Disney "Little Gem" record, 45 RPM, LG-702, 1961 Walt Disney Productions, with a price on the sleeve of 29 cents. This record was manufactured in Canada by RCA Victor Company, LTD.  The record sleeve was printed in the U.S.A.
I love the graphic of Donald and Uncle Scrooge flying in space on a rocket which is spewing money out if it! Side 1 has part one of the story and part two is on side 2. the Cast includes Donald Duck, Uncle Scrooge and Jiminy Cricket.
From the back of the record: Walt Disney 12-inch long playing records for children. If you and your children enjoy this Walt Disney Gem record we know you'll be happy to learn that the Disney Studio had prepared a wonderful library of 12-inch LPs for children.
This Little Gem record, while complete in itself, is only a small portion of the high quality and good musicianship found on the Disney 12-inch LP line. We invite your attention to the following LP titles which are available at your favorite record store. (See picture below for complete listing of LPs.)

Gosh, wish we could hear some of these records (as much as I love seeing the covers)!

At some point I may try uploading a few of the records shown on my blog to Youtube if there is enough interest, and I can find the extra time.

I think I had this record - is the story about Uncle Scrooge wanting to store his money on the moon for safety? I would love to hear it again!

I have a digitized version of Donald Duck and Uncle Scrooge's Monkey Rocket if anyone would like to hear it. Just email me and I can send you the m4a sound file. You can find my email address just under my profile on this blog.
