You’ve wandered into the topsy-turvy world of Tulgey Wood, the blog of writer and historian Jim Fanning. Tulgey Wood celebrates artistry and creativity (and sometimes just plain madness): movies, animation, TV, books, comics—and of course Disney, lots and lots of true-blue, through-and-through Disney, including D23 and Disney twenty-three Magazine, and Sketches Magazine and the Walt Disney Collectors Society. Tulgey Wood is so fun, fascinating and full of frolicsome photos and facts, it’s scary. So wander through the wonder of it all, and enjoy.

Speaking of TV…

…be sure and check out 2719 Hyperion for Jeff Pepper’s fun look at the 1953 tie-in campaign for Admiral television sets and Walt Disney's Peter Pan. In this age of HD, it seems quaint to see an ad trumpeting the value of a TV that is “ready for UHF stations.” Not to mention seeing Princess Tiger Lily and Foxy (one of the Lost Boys) in advertisements for television sets in the first place.
