Note 9 : Leigh Harline (b. 1907 ) had since 1932 been linked to the Walt Disney Studio as one of several composers of music for the short cartoons. He was also one of the composers on Disney's " Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs ", along with Frank Churchill and Paul Smith. Finally, Harline also was composer of Disney's " Pinocchio ", along with Ned Washington and Paul Smith. For this film composed Harline including the melody of the song When you wish upon a Star ( "Når du ser et stjerneskud").

Paramount, which, incidentally, had its headquarters in Times Square in New York City, was not prepared to give up cartoon production, but just to get rid of the mutually divided and warring Fleischer brothers and some of their employees, while the rest were offered new contract but at lower wages. It reorganized the studio and called it Famous Studios (after Paramount's Famous Music Corporation). Under the artistic direction of Max Fleischer's son, animator and director Seymour Knitel and animator and director Isadore (Izzy) Sparber, and with a former employee, Sam Buchwald, as studio manager, continued production of Popeye and several other cartoon series. Later reduced Paramount its staff at Famous Studios, and the company moved to New York.
