Tales of Washington Irving

This animated special showcases Washington Irving's iconic stories. It features 'The Legend of Sleepy Hollow,' where the infamous headless horseman makes an appearance, and 'Rip Van Winkle,' telling the tale of a man who falls asleep and wakes up years later.

Originally airing on television between Halloween and Thanksgiving in the early 1970s, this special has nostalgic appeal for those who remember it from its original broadcast. It was later released on VHS home video by MGM in 1987, adding to its collectible status, though it is currently out of print.

Collectors may appreciate the opportunity to own this piece of animated history, especially given its unique blend of fantasy and classic literature. The inclusion of notable voice actors such as Mel Blanc and Ken Sansom adds further interest to this release.
