Interesting facts

Donald Duck is a series of American animated comedy short films produced by Walt Disney Productions. The series started in 1937 with Donald's Ostrich and ended in 1961 with The Litterbug, with an additional short, D.I.Y. Duck, being released in 2024.

Production

After his debut in the short film The Wise Little Hen from the series Silly Symphony, Donald Duck became a recurring character in the short films of the series Mickey Mouse. Due to his popularity, Donald began starring in his own series of shorts, beginning with Donald's Ostrich on December 10, 1937.

The series had annual releases from 1937 to 1956, later having a hiatus until the release in 1961 of The Litterbug, which, unlike the others, was presented without the starburst with Donald's face and under the title "Walt Disney presents Donald Duck". In 2024, due to the 90th anniversary of Donald Duck, was released an additional short, D.I.Y. Duck.

While Don Donald and Modern Inventions were distributed under United Artists, Donald's Ostrich onwards were distributed by RKO Radio Pictures, with the exception of Grand Canyonscope (1954) and The Litterbug, distributed under Buena Vista Distribution, which distributed most of the other shorts in re-releases, and D.I.Y. Duck, distributed by its production studio Walt Disney Animation Studios.

The cartoons were directed by 12 different people. Those with the most credits include Jack King (53) and Jack Hannah (48).
