Disney Anthology recap time! 70 years ago on 3/7/56, we go "On Vacation"-a cartoon short bonanza with host Jiminy Cricket who has strict instructions to stay on budget. The only problem with creating his show is that EVERYONE is on vacation. What follows are some of the best shorts from the studio🧡
