7.3 What's the difference between Classic Pooh and Disney Pooh?
"Classic" Pooh is Disney's way of describing the style for Pooh and the others
as illustrated by E.H. Shepard. Therefore, Classic Pooh merchandise would show the
characters in the style created by Shepard. Typically, this also means that the colors are
a lot softer and that the characters look more like the stuffed toys that they were
originally based on.
"Disney" Pooh is the style for the characters as created by
the Disney studios for their cartoons. This style usually has brighter colors.

additional charge) for various specials.
7.5 How do I find out about the current Hunny Pot Point program?
