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.

A Pumpkin Patch For Your Halloween Party

Hallmark was one of the first major Peanuts merchandisers (they remain a licensee today) and they have done some wonderful cards, ornaments and other items, especially from the mid-1960s through the 70s. In 1968 Hallmark released this artful Linus and Snoopy centerpiece as part of their party goods line, showcasing the Great Pumpkin phenomenon. ABC is broadcasting It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown tonight, October 30, and you can of course rent the DVD from Netflix or your neighborhood video shop, or you can buy it here .

I watched some of this last night before I fell asleep. I can't remember ever seeing the whole thing!
