So, do any of you remember those Mickey Mouse cartoons from the 1930s, the ones that were just put on DVD a few years ago?

While I hear there's one that was unreleased to even the most avid classic Disney fans,

according to sources, it's nothing special, just a continuous loop, like the Flintstones,

of Mickey walking past six buildings that go on for two or three minutes before fading out.

Unlike the cutesy tunes usually put in, though, the song in this cartoon was not a song at all,

everyone believed that after the film cut the black, that was it. When Leonard Moulton was

reviewing the cartoon to decide whether it belonged in the complete series,

he decided it was too junk to be on the DVD, but wanted to have a digital copy due to the fact that it was an original creation of Walt.

Once he'd created a digitized version on his computer and looked at the file. He noticed something. The cartoon was actually

nine minutes and four seconds long. This is what my source emailed to me in full. He's

a personal assistant of one of the higher executives at Disney and an acquaintance of Mr.

Moulton himself. After it cut to black, it stayed like that until the sixth minute, before going back to

Mickey Walking.

The sound was difficult this time.

It was a murmur.
