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.

Mickey And The Wearin' Of The Grin

To celebrate St. Patrick's Day, here's a vintage photo of Mickey Mouse from a Disneyland Park parade, circa 1968. Though it's a black-and-white pic, rest assured that this Irish "mick" is wearing plenty of Emerald Isle green. It's fun to note that Mickey's Irish finery includes a shillelagh. Wonder if the parade music featured "I'll Always Be Irish"...
