This article on bluray.com on the release does confirm a mono mix.

Thanks everybody for confirming this. Here is the updated info:

VHS: Unknown if VHS had original mono. High possibility that they have.

LD: Some LD's are mono (like the 50th Anniversary Edition), others were fake stereo (like a Japanese release with reference number G98F5545).

DVD: Dolby Digital 5.1 for the simple release, slightly altered mono included in the Collector's Edition and 70th Anniversary Edition.

BD: Both Dolby TrueHD 5.1 and mono sound is available on both the 70th Anniversary Blu-ray and the 75th Anniversary 2D and 3D Blu-ray.

And here's something that I can't wrap my head around. About 2 years ago, the 1994 Don Bluth movie Thumbelina got released on Blu-ray . As far as I know, it was a European only release, but despite having 8 different dubs available, one is very absent, namely the Swedish dub. I know that this movie got a Swedish dub, because I owned a VHS that was dubbed in Swedish, but the only thing we Swedish speakers got on Blu-ray and even DVD was Swedish subtitles. I think that when 20th Century Fox got the distribution rights for this movie from Warner Bros., they for some reason removed the Swedish dub. What do you think of this?

Avatar_Emil , Thumbelina was released on Blu-Ray Here in the US. I have seen it at Walmart many times, & you can find it at amazon.com.

A lot of dubs/ Languages get removed on Blu-Ray for some reason. I guess the studios think that there is no demand for certain languages, or maybe it has to do with Royalties for the voice actors in those regions
