I wouldn't trust the IMDB too much, since they get information wrong sometimes.

UCLA Film & TV Archive's online database listing for their circa-1961 dye-transfer 35mm print:

I'm a bit let down that Disney continues to make their Platinum Edition releases so fluffy on supplemental content. Peter Pan didn't have much interesting content besides a commentary, a very short "making of" featurette, and some deleted scene material. This at least seems to be a little better, but I think just getting some animators and historians together would allow for a great commentary. WB does this with their animation, anyways.

Tell The Weinstein Company to release Richard Williams' animated masterpiece The Thief and the Cobbler on DVD in Panavision widescreen and uncut! See and hear what you're missing from their Bitsy Award winner of Worst Standard Edition DVD of 2006 on YouTube!
