Children's Cassette Tapes: Dick Tracy, Mother Goose, and Aesop.

Dick Tracy Audio Action Adventures. Episode 01 "Big Boy Turns Up the Heat." 1900 Walt Disney Company, Buena Vista Distribution. 
Audio cassette tapes are defiinitly on the many once everyday media experiences that today' children will not use. Unless they have an interest in media history, which I definitely would.

As a kid of the 1990s, I did not think there would not be sequel to the Warren Beatty Dick Tracy movie, based on how much advertising and merchandise was promoted with this movie. I was unaware of these audio adventures. 


Mother Goose Treasury Volumes I & II. 1991 J2 Communications 
This was an album from a nice live action version of the Mother Goose stories that used to air on the Disney Channel in the United States.

The Fables of Aesop. Date Unknown. Spoken Arts
This was one of several public school discarded cassettes from the "Spoken Arts" label that I have acquired. Featuring narration by John Franklyn, Pamela Mant, Sara Franklyn, Simon Franklyn, "Fables of Aesop" was also released as an LP.
