Pre-production for Walt Disney’s adaptation of Felix Salten’s classic tale began as early as 1936 and was intended to be Disney’s second full-length animated film after Snow White (1937). His insistence on perfection and quest for realism, however, delayed the project significantly, so that four other Disney films were released before Bambi in 1942. Bambi was animated by Disney’s legendary “nine old men”— including Frank Thomas, Ollie Johnston, Marc Davis, Milt Kahl and Eric Larson. Designed to promote the movie, the storybook version of Bambi features 14 full-page color images from the film and 54 in-text half-tone cartoons.
