Donald's Gold Mine
Directed by Dick Lundy
Produced by Walt Disney Productions
A lighthearted slapstick cartoon short where Donald Duck's clumsiness and misfortune with his burro create comedic chaos in a gold mine.
Donald is digging in his gold mine, mostly generic looking dark rocks, and being clumsy, to the great amusement of his burro, when he accidentally fills his cart with a load of pure gold. The burro takes off and dumps the cart, Donald and all, into a scary looking crusher. Donald barely makes it through the machinery.
