You may remember that the very first post of this blog a few years ago dealt with a 1963 Three Little Pigs sequence specially created by Disney for the Mexican movie Cri-Cri, El Grillito Cantor.During my visit to the Disney Archives two weeks ago, I had the pleasure of finding a little more information about this project.
The sequence was originally supposed to feature the 3 Caballeros in addition to the 3 Little Pigs.
On June 11, 1963, a memo said: “The Studio has agreed to produce for the Instituto Nacional de Proteccion de la Infancia – Mexico, an animated sequence of approximately 470ft., featuring the 3 Little Pigs, Donald Duck, Panchito and Jose Carioca.”
That sequence would get the production number 5954-039.

Hi,
Thanks for sharing this link - but unfortunately it seems to be down? Does anybody here at disneybooks.blogspot.com have a mirror or another source?
Cheers,

I once had the original art to the complete sunday adventure of The Three caballeros and the Sea Monster from 1963. Produced for the spanish speaking market with King Features Copyright labels pasted on the art.
Dont know if it ever was published or who the artist was. Still got copies in my files, though.
