The Little Mermaid VHS Black Diamond Classic Recalled Banned Cover

Vintage Walt Disney Classic “The Little Mermaid” VHS tape featuring the sought‑after Black Diamond spine logo and the controversial recalled cover art. Front artwork shows Ariel and Eric in front of King Triton’s golden castle, with the original spire design that was later pulled for suggestive imagery and replaced on future printings. Clamshell case and tape are both included; ISBN 1-55890-913-3 and stock number 12257 are printed on the back. Running time 83 minutes, color, mastered in digital video and audio with Hi‑Fi Stereo surround.

Condition is preowned with typical shelf and edge wear to the white clamshell, light scuffs, and some yellowing/crease marks at corners; artwork insert has surface wear but colors remain bright. Tape is untested and sold as a collectible display piece only. However , the tape looks good. There's no mildew on it, which is a common problem with VHS that were stored in sheds with poor insulation and lots of trees blocking the sun or run down storage units. Please review all photos to confirm this is the Black Diamond edition with the original banned cover and to judge cosmetic condition. Great addition for Disney VHS collectors, 80s/90s nostalgia lovers, or anyone hunting the infamous recalled Little Mermaid artwork.

It will be shipped Priority with extra insurance added to it.
