Description A heavy card-stock fan card usually mailed to individuals who wrote fan letters to Disney. Card shows the Brers on their way to the Laughing Place. Caption reads "Brer Bear, Brer Fox and Brer Rabbit from Walt Disney's "Song of the South."
Variations Back shows a picture of Bobby Driscoll and Luana Patten in "director" chairs. It is believed this is probably the original fan card from c.1946-c.1949. Later editions distributed in the 1950's (after Driscoll and Patten were no longer paired up in Disney films) have a blank backside.
