Figures...I just recently bought the one that's been out for awhile. Guess that's why they announced they were releasing a new version...they were waiting for me to buy the old one first.

Not sure if it is a misprint or not, but the slipcover for this new release of Sword in the Stone stated an aspect ratio of 1:33.

According to UltimateDisney.com 1.33:1 is right, and 1.75:1 was likely matted. Odd thing is the Gold Edition had the standard "This film has been modified to fit your screen" warning that is put on Pan & Scan DVDs. I wonder if this release does too.
