I was just seeing what was on TV and noted that Smile of a Child was showing an anime show (not a good anime but an anime) so I looked at my TV guide and it said "Little Women" so I decided to watch the credits and I see the names Haim Saban and Shuki Levy, (so I'm thinking this show has to be from the 80s if Saban did music for it) and then at the end of the credits it says "Saban Productions". So I looked up Little Women on Wikipedia and it says "Little Women was first dubbed into English by Saban Entertainment".
 
If this is the case, then techincally this should either be moved to or mirrored in the anime forum.

Anyway, I'm guessing that this is the dub of Nippon Animation's "World Masterpiece Theater" version that I've heard about (incidentally, this was one of only three WMT shows to be dubbed in English and shown in the U.S. in their entirety*; the others were Tom Sawyer and Swiss Family Robinson).

*The closest we ever got to a dub of Heidi, Girl of the Alps was a dub of the movie version, and that was only released on home video.
