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.

Hi To You And Hi To Me, Hi to Everyone Who's Celebrating The 65th Anniversary Of Walt Disney's Mickey Mouse Club

 On Monday, October 3, 1955, Walt Disney's Mickey Mouse Club was on the air! On that day, 65 years ago today, one of the most famous (fa-mouse?) figures in show biz/pop culture/film invaded TV and introduced a slew of child actors that just about no one had ever heard of. By the end of that first week, Annette, Bobby, Darlene and the rest of the Mouseketeers, were stars (especiallyAnnette). To celebrate this milestone anniversary, and to tie in with our Countdown to Halloween 2020, here's a reminder that adorable mini-Mouseketeers Karen and Cubby recorded a cover of the theme from Trick or Treat (1952). Happy Halloween-time to all, happy 65th anniversary to Mickey Mouse Club!

This pre-dates me, by a little bit, but I do remember watching reruns. And I knew that M-I-C-K-E-Y M-O-U-S-E song by heart.
