MousePlanet staff writer Wade Sampson has written two very interesting and in-depth articles related to Song of the South. The first article, published on January 17 and titled “Disney’s B’rer Rabbit Hops Into the Funny Pages“, describes the history and background of the Disney Uncle Remus comic strip. This weekly comic strip ran for over 27 years, from 10/14/1945 to 12/31/1972.
The second article, published on February 13, is “The Song of the South Premiere” which is a very comprehensive history of Song of the South up to the point of its theatrical premiere on November 12, 1946. If you are interested in learning more about Song of the South‘s history, this article is a must-read. Thanks to Wade Sampson for publishing these excellent articles and thanks to Joey Sartin for the news report!
