*The best way to find it is to look for a Disney video (usually VHS, but some on Betamax, and also LaserDisc and CED Videodisc) with white clamshell packaging with a small Sorcerer Mickey print logo above the film's artwork which is usually surrounded with a colored border. The color of the border varies depending on the film and the genre of the film. However, early releases with this logo use the home entertainment artwork. | *The best way to find it is to look for a Disney video (usually VHS, but some on Betamax, and also LaserDisc and CED Videodisc) with white clamshell packaging with a small Sorcerer Mickey print logo above the film's artwork which is usually surrounded with a colored border.

It was seen on 1984-1985 VHS releases of ''The Mickey Mouse Club'', appearing after the 1st logo, and on the 1985 VHS release of ''The Walt Disney Comedy and Magic Revue'' by itself. The 2000 variant appears on VHS releases of several live-action Disney films that aired on ''The Wonderful World of Disney''; select demo releases like the 2000 [[Touchstone Home Entertainment|Touchstone]] VHS of ''Play It to the Bone'' also featured this trailer. | ||
