Kevin hasn't checked the Disney Archives yet, he just didn't recognize it. He & Jody have been working on some Song of the South collectibles recently, so they have been delving into vintage reference lately, but they hadn't done an exhaustive look through the archives. Thanks so much for your input on the shirt! TikiVixen noted on Friday that the color palette looks very '40s, and I agree with her... it's looking more and more to me like this is from 1946ish. Still haven't heard anything back from Christian Willis at songofthesouth.net yet!
