Some fun covers!

The year I was born with a great year

Gosh I think he’s cute!!

Great art pieces!!

Yoo Hoo!!!!!!

Hooray!!! I’ll be there 🎉

Have a blast!

It's like Disney wanted to make a romantic comedy with no kids and no magic. And it mostly works. Some very funny scenes. The gangster in the basement trying to climb up the stairs comes to mind. And Slim Pickens trying to be a well-mannered waiter is another. The final act of the film with its slapstick 3 Stooges vibe is the weakest part, in my opinion, but probably included to entertain any children in the audience. I watched this recently with my wife - and we enjoyed this mostly forgotten movie.

Wonderful, classic Disney art.

i was born in that year

I love drawing, in fact as a child I learned to draw with disney magazines and I still have 18. Gracias a Mr.Disney

Some interesting facts I never knew before. Thanks Jim--as always, very nicely done! 🎈

Thanks a lot Jim and Steven!! Two great interviews. "Grandma (Duck) and Jim together again for the very first time!" Ha!!!

I hope you have more of these Big Golden Books.

This was SUPER interesting thanks to both you (Jim) and your wonderful guest, Steve Vagnini. I can't wait to watch part 2. Seems like there needs to be a Steve Vagnini A to Z. 🙂

That was a fun watch. Hope you're having a great Summer!

Awesome! I'm a collector of Rudolph merchandise and I love the Playing Mantis releases, they really captured the look of the original puppets.

Highly interesting interview and information; I love this stuff! Thank you Steven and Jim...and Mr. Smith!

What a wonderful interview! I enjoy hearing the first hand knowledge and experiences of the behind the scene Disney people! Thanks Jim for bringing these amazing people to us!!

Glorious Jim. Gonna order the book Disney A to Z today. ❤😊. Love this visit. Steve is a great guy. 👍 just like you

I had that Fantasia album but my parents purchased it for me in the 1970’s.

I have Gumby, Pokey, Goo, Minga. I don't have the bendable Pokey, bendable Prickle, bendable Goo, bendable Minga, the miniature Prickle, the bendale Tara, the bendable Fatbuckle, Nobuckle and Thinbuckle just yet.

A Fact: the Minnie yoo hoo is the mr Raymond theme song(mr raymond is a character of a mexican Sitcom called Chavo of 8) and the disney when buy the chavo of 8 Copyright he make official this song was mr raymond(only the instrumental and this a little speed up)

I watched quite a few of these short yesterday on Walt Disney Treasures The Chronological Donald Volume One! Donald Duck is my favorite Disney character and it’s a tradition of mine to watch all four volumes near June for his Birthday!

I had Mary Poppins within my talent to draw pictures by pencil when I was 21-years-old in 2013. To be located in too much about it, I told her that I drew my Project Onward picture drawing artist studio pictures at Project Onward.

What great finds! Amazing you can get your hands on these. Auction sites? I would frame those for sure. The Mary Poppins one is so colorful and has so much feel to it. The Cinderella is incredible. The typography on all of them is so strong. Nice video.

I love carl barks scrooge. Don rosa’s not so much

5 decades later here we are in the centennial year well it wasn't as great well at least got some big ways to celebrate including wondrous journeys and elemental and other stuff but I think what is stand out the most was once upon a studio

I also have this comic

nice

Damn, I want that Birdman! It looks dope!

I Love Lucy my favorite one fan BIG season DVD 📀 Dolls New York Jamestown Lucy Desi Museum Love my favorite one fan BIG 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖🎶🗽

I would have loved to see it!

Yay for May!

Love these especially the wishing well!

Thank you for this! I was a child at the time of “Off To See The Wizard”, and I can only remember bits and pieces. ( Remember, there was no syndicated version - so you saw it once and then … poof! … you had to rely on memory.) I have a set of the “Ozkins” - probably a play on Disney’s “Disney-kins” - hand painted by my mom. Not having a color t.v. back then , she guessed at the color schemes. She got pretty close. As another poster noted, the Wicked Witch of the East resembles “Mombi” from the 2nd Oz book. “The Soldier”, is also known as the “Soldier with the green whiskers”, and resembles the drawings by Denslow in the first book. ( Technically, Frank Morgan played a version in the MGM film … but … not exact to the original drawings.).

Jim, I have a question; what is letterhead? Just kidding. This is so cool! Thanks very much for sharing.

Yay! I love Sleeping Beauty! One of my favorite movies!

Great recommendations!

Love the song choice and the many wonderful art covers!!

Well, it took 11 months, but as promised, I'm back! 😳 I honestly don't remember Spin and Marty all that well, but there's a dim memory of buying some comic books under their name (Gold Key?), so this was all new information to me. I loved that recording you played as well. I think Sinatra also did a version of it (😉). Thanks once again for bringing us all this great work you do, Jim!

Bellissimo Jim! Also in Italy, after the first 1951 showing, the film was reissued only for spring 1970, with a beautiful poster by Bruno Napoli. In that occasion there was also a storyteller LP with original film dialogues and for the first time, the italian version of the big golden book, printed by Mondadori editore. After that, the film, in 1985, went to the 16mm catalogue and in VHS. We had also two super 8mm extracts. After some years, the italian 16mm section of Disney Italia was shut down and copies of films were all destroyed (or someone went secretly in the hands of some collectors). To find a surviving italian 16mm of Alice could be a real treasure! I have an original USA Technicolor print in 16mm.

What fun to see those great letterheads! Some are really creative, too!!

Love this! I had the pleasure of being pen-pals with the late Dave Smith, and he made sure to use a different letterhead on nearly every letter he sent - recognized some of them here!

These are all fantastic!

When I saw the cover in a different video, I knew it was a Carl Barks tribute! Calling it the "Barks Billions" is the icing on the cake! From what I learned from a completely different video, Matt Groening himself is an avid fan of Barks' own work to the point Springfield apparently took cues from the famous Duckburg! Anyway, it was excellent you had a chance to interview such a legend! I consider him as great of a writer as someone like Mark Twain.

Thank you for this video. Is the 1951 Disney Christmas special available anywhere?

I also really enjoyed this one. Great questions and very interesting answers. Thank you both!

1 evening when I was 5 or 6 a man named Jess Kirby bought a pull string captain kangaroo toy from a garage sale
