Mickey Mouse in Black and White

Mickey takes a ride to Minnie’s house to give her a ride in his horse-drawn carriage, only to discover that some hot-shot (the precursor of Pete, the mouse’s famous nemesis) with a new-fangled automobile has beaten him to it. Mickey manages to overcome the competition at first, but once he takes Minnie to a hoedown, he has to face the bully again and find new ways to win over his sweetheart.

All the local animals gather at Mickey’s opera house to watch the show. After showcasing a goofy symphony, Mickey gets a solo number on a piano. The toon also includes some wacky takes on famous opera songs I’m sure most viewers will recognize.

Mickey and Minnie lead a band of look-alike mice into a cat’s home when he leaves for the day. They proceed to fool around with musical instruments, including using a block of cheese to play a piano and creating a make-shift mouse record player.

After Mickey undergoes a rather “stretchy” inspection, he is accepted into the barnyard troops. The enemy is an army of Pete look-alikes, who raid the place with tons of cartoony cannons and guns, prompting the return fire of Mickey & pals (stuff blows up real good in this cartoon). Soon after, Mickey single-handedly goes to battle with the opposition. There’s nothing quite like seeing Mickey fiercely handling a machine gun!

While working on a farm, Mickey tries to plow, milk a cow, and give Minnie a big smooch – all to varying degrees of success.

Minnie comes to visit Mickey as he works at a railroad station. After she plays him the fiddle, they go for a ride on the train, which turns zany when one of the cars disconnects with Minnie atop it as Mickey goes for the rescue.

When Mickey brings his road-show into town, a bunch of animals come to show off their musical talents. Afterwards, like previous cartoons, Mickey has a wacky solo on a piano.

As one would expect from the title, the subject of this toon is Mickey making music in the jungle. As he uses plants and animals to crank out well-known tunes, the local residents dance along.

Mickey and Minnie spend a day at the beach. When the girly mouse gets swept out to sea, Mickey bravely saves her. Once back on dry land, the two high-pitched rodents sing and dance.

Mickey finds himself trapped in a creepy mansion with a group of live skeletons, who happen to love music. They put him to work on the piano as they sing and dance, reminiscent of the well-known Silly Symphony short, “The Skeleton Dance.”

When everybody’s favorite mouse comes out to do a violin solo for an unseen audience, he makes a few blunders to the roar of laughter. Anxious to get it right, he shifts into high gear to deliver a frantic performance.

Mickey conducts an animal band, playing both real musical instruments and other animals to make music.

Riding to meet in a Spanish-speaking Minnie in a desert saloon, Mickey tries to impress her with his knack for making music out of household objects . . . until Pegleg Pete comes and steals Minnie away. Time for Mickey to save the day again! Noticeably, this short and the recent Mickey, Donald, Goofy: The Three Musketeers prominently feature the same music.

Mickey and Minnie make music together while a group of animals dance in a barn.

Mickey goes over to pick up Minnie, who brings along her dog, Rover (A.K.A. early Pluto). The trio head to the country to eat lunch. While Mickey & Minnie dance and sing, Rover chases after animals, and ants raid the picnic basket. It all comes to an end when it begins to pour rain, and the two lovers find that Rover’s tail makes a good windshield wiper.

This short, one of the most entertaining on this disc, has Mickey in the role of a cab driver. After picking up a far-too-overweight pedestrian, he gives Minnie a ride. Along the way, there are some pretty clever gags and two appearances by Pete.

Once stranded on a deserted island, Mickey gets a box washed up on shore. No, not Wilson the volleyball! A piano! He goes on to play the instrument for the nearby animals until a big ape takes over.

Mickey and Pluto (unnamed in this cartoon, but clearly said character) take their boat out onto a lake. While Mickey deals with the frustrations of catching fish, Pluto explores the underwater life. Their swell time is interrupted when a cranky old sheriff catches them in a “No Fishing” zone.

Mickey, Minnie, Pluto, Horace, and Clarabelle all take a day to have some fun in the sun. Everything is going peachy until Pluto provokes an angry octopus, which then attacks the gang’s picnic. The characters use everything they’ve got to throw at the oceanic animal, but he proves to be quite adept at catching things and throwing them back.

Mickey hosts a radio show with his musical pals. The broadcast runs into a little trouble when a noisy mother cat and her litter of kittens invade the barn and are unwilling to leave.

Mickey and Pluto go hunting together, encountering all sorts of forest creatures. After some goofy gags and Pluto faking his death, the duo runs into a very large and hostile moose.

While on his delivery route, Mickey stops by Minnie’s backyard to do some flirting. The two play a duet on the piano while Pluto gets in trouble with some dynamite.

When the mouse gives Pluto a bath, the dog accidentally swallows a bar of soap and goes running away. Seeing the foam and bubbles coming from the canine’s mouth, the townsfolk think he’s mad. To save his pal from being done in, Mickey has to go face-to-face with Pete the dogcatcher.

Mickey competes in a race against Pete, who has several tricks up his sleeve to keep the mouse from winning. Can Mickey be #1, despite the cheating bully?

Mickey, Minnie, and Pluto perform their barnyard chores amidst spurts of song and dance. However, everyone’s attention is drawn when one of the resident hens lays a humungous egg.

When Mickey and Pluto venture deep into the mysterious jungle, they meet some very goofy natives (so goofy, in fact, that they all possess the signature Goofy laugh). At first, they’re only interested in cooking the two adventurers, until Mickey wins them over with his musical abilities.

Mickey buys Minnie a canary and a group of baby canaries as a gift. The pets are plenty of fun, except when the babies get into some ink and begin showering the mouse’s pad with black markings.

Minnie calls Mickey & Pluto up to deliver the groceries she needs to make dinner. When they arrive, Mickey helps his beau prepare turkey and cake, beside Pluto’s antics.

The two mice lovers take a vacation to Arabia to soak up the sun and take in the sights. Their tour is interrupted when Pete kidnaps Minnie, forcing Mickey to come to rescue on a drunken camel.

On a snowy Christmas night, Mickey and Pluto play some tunes in the streets to get some much-needed change. When the cylindrical mouse spots a poor mother with several children, he sadly sells his dog for some doe, so he can buy the kids presents for the holiday. His self-sacrificing deed pays off for him in the end.

There’s a new addition to the Mouse household – a litter of kittens! Pluto doesn’t take too kindly to the bunch of fur balls, though, and faces an internal struggle with his good side and bad side. When the batch of felines gets stuck in a well, will Pluto be able to overcome his dislike to save them? Let’s hope!

Our old Mick proves to be quite the mechanic, as he constructs a boxing robot to go up against the giant Killer Kong in the ring. The Mech Man isn’t the sturdiest machine, but Mickey and Minnie discover that he goes ballistic when he hears the sound of a horn.

Mickey and the gang put on a version of “Uncle Tom’s Cabin”, while Goofy provokes some tomato throwing from his antics backstage.

When Mickey’s horse becomes too drunk to compete in the race, he has two steeple workers dress up in a horse suit for him to ride on the track. As one may expect, things don’t go too smoothly, as they run into some problems with big puddles and bees.

This cartoon showcases a series of misadventures Pluto gets into, stemming from his curiosity of the goings-on at Mickey’s house.

While Mickey and Minnie do some serious flirting, their two baby nephews decide to take a ride in their uncle’s giant steamroller. As expected, they aren’t able to control it, and Mickey has to go on a crazy chase to get his prized vehicle back.

On a dark and spooky night, a baby is left in a basket on Mickey and Pluto’s doorstep. The two take the youngster in, but soon find it quite a chore to entertain the little guy.

The cartoon begins with Peg-leg Pete having captured Mickey and Minnie on a sailing ship in the middle of the ocean. What’s left for the rodents to do? Escape, of course!

Pluto gets jealous when Mickey gets a new bouncing, boxing kangaroo and her little joey. Though they manage to get on the dog’s nerves with their destructive antics, the smaller one soon begins to grow on him.

Once traveling to a tropical island, Mickey discovers a band of natives and proceeds to scare them all off . . . all but one. He makes this rather stupid character his “Man Friday," who helps Mickey defend against the natives’ attack once they return.
