This blog is dedicated to black and white photos, mostly those from the jazz era. Enjoy!
I do not claim to own any of the photos, any copyright infringement is unintentional.
Here is a photo during the production of Disney’s The Reluctant Dragon on November 7, 1940. Actress Frances Gifford, who played a studio artist in the film, is the woman in the photo. Clockwise from Gifford: John McLeish, T. Hee, Ward Kimball, Fred Moore (back), Norm Ferguson (back) and Erdman Penner.
John McLeish, who narrated the Goofy “how to” cartoons, was was an animator and story man at Disney in the 1940s. Dumbo was also narrated by John McLeish.
