Good morning! This day in Disney history, Jan. 4th, 1905. Character actor & Disney Legend Sterling Holloway, (the original voice of Winnie the Pooh) is born in Cedartown, Georgia. His countless Disney voice credits include Peter and the Wolf, Bambi, The Jungle book, The Aristocats,
Dumbo, The Three Caballeros, Make Mine Music, & Alice in Wonderland. Who's your favorite Sterling Holloway voiced character?
✨ Also on the day in 1936, "Mickey's Polo Team", directed by David Hand, is released. The Mickey Mousers take on the Movie Stars in a manic polo tournament. Animated spectators include Hollywood stars Shirley Temple, Eddie Cantor, W.C. Fields & Clark Gable. The film is created as a result of Walt Disney's interest in the sport. To watch: http://is.gd/dDLtI4 Have a great day!
