From All of Us to All of You


From All of Us to All of You is an animated television Christmas special, produced by Walt Disney Productions and first presented on December 19, 1958 on ABC as part of the Walt Disney Presents anthology series. Hosted by Jiminy Cricket along with Mickey Mouse and Tinker Bell, the special combines newly produced animation with clips from vintage animated Disney shorts and feature films, presented to the viewer as "Christmas cards" from the various characters starring in each one.

This painting is from that program, it announces a clip from Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.
To watch a few clips from Disney animated films was incredibly special, looong before everyone could buy the complete films on video or disc.

  1. In Finland, Sweden, Denmark and norway, it's still an annual event. Of course, they update it by adding a few clips of the latest Disney movie to the original film. But it's been shown here every year since i could remember.

    1. That's right, Leo – It's been on swedish TV every Christmas Eve since 1960! And in Norway since 1979 (also on Christmas Eve). It's one of the most beloved TV-traditions in Scandinavia.
