More Sword In the Stone extras
- This past week, I featured a bunch of the Bill Peet drawings which are located on a dvd copy of The Sword and the Stone. There are also quite a few photos on the disc. Here are some I thought interesting. None of the people are identified in these photos, and I recognize too few of them.

(Amid Amidi posted this in the comments section:The left hand photo below the painted bg is in Blast 9. I don’t have a copy handy but the two guys sitting are Woolie Reitherman and John Sibley. I think the two guys on the left are Basil Davidovich and Don Griffith but I don’t remember. If anybody has the issue, perhaps they can post the correct idents.)

______________The Multiplane camera with only a couple of levels in use.

______________The horizontal Multiplane camera and the final scene.

Amid’s identifications are correct. The man standing on the right is Dick Lucas.

I’m pretty sure that the little fellow in the checkered suit in that second photo is Junius Matthews, the voice of Archimedes (and Rabbit in the Pooh films.) The big bear of a guy in the black suit is definitely composer, George Bruns. I just love his scores from the films of that era!

That’s Sylvia Cobb at the layout desk; if you have a copy of the National Geographic from 63 theres a photo of Sylvia looking through a cel of Merlin in the section on Disney. When I worked with Stan Green, Milt’s old assistant he told me that Milt based the sexy girl Mim briefly turns into on Sylvia, (figure wise) upstairs in layout. I bet she use too turn a few heads at the studio.

The Woman checking the bg and cels of Merlin, bottom righthand pic is, I think. Katherine Kerwin; in the Chris Finch book, The Art of Walt Disney the section on Robin Hood has her in a similar pose, checking…
