Donald Duck (film series)

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 (although two previous short films, Don Donald (1937) and Modern Inventions (1937), were later re-released under this series) and ended in 1961 with The Litterbug. The series, a spin-off of the Mickey Mouse film series, stars the titular character Donald Duck, in addition to having recurring appearances by previously known characters such as Pluto and Pete, and also introduced well-known characters such as Donald's nephews Huey, Dewey and Louie (previously introduced in comic books) and Donald's love interest Daisy Duck, as well as Donald's recurring rivals Chip 'n' Dale under their names (previously appearing without names in the shorts Private Pluto and Squatter's Rights).
