| Three Caballeros Panchito, Donald and Jose Airborne Amigos |
|
Notes:
|
|
That quixotic quackster Donald Duck journeys into South America with dapper José Carioca from Brazil and ebullient Panchito the Mexican rooster as his tour guides. Panchito graciously invites his two amigos to accompany him on “a nice little trip to Mexico on the magic serape.” This multi-colored magic carpet sweeps the birds-of-a-feather trio over the beautiful land of song, dance and romance. Panchito, José (who was introduced in Saludos Amigos) and Donald were animated throughout The Three Caballeros by, among others, Ollie Johnston, Ward Kimball and John Lounsbery,
so it’s obvious Walt Disney wanted his most magnífico talent
to bring these animated stars to the screen. Plussed with pewter spurs on Panchito and a pewter ribbon on Donald’s hat, this muy
grande sculpture embodies the fun and fiesta spirit of this animated carnivale of animated delights

JOSÉ CARIOCA:
José Carioca is a playboy parrot, and if there's one thing he loves more than the ladies, it's his native land of Brazil. So it's his pleasure to become Donald Duck's suave tour guide. Whether they visit the seaside village of Baìa or the capital city, Rio de Janeiro, he's determined to show Donald that his land's greatest treasure might just be the samba. Both a dance and a musical rhythm, the samba is not unlike José himself: Mix one part bouncy beat, two parts tropical tempo, and three parts Rio romance, and you've got a melody shaken purely for fun.
PANCHITO:
"Iiieeee-ah-ah!" cries Panchito, the singing red rooster gaucho (cowboy) from Mexico. The third of the Three Caballeros, he treats his pals Donald Duck and José Carioca to a trip through Mexico on his magic serape (Mexican blanket). Proud of his beloved country, he makes the mistake of bringing them to Acapulco Beach, where Donald goes ga-ga for the local bathing beauties. So Panchito and his blanket swoop down to carry the rambunctious duck away before he gets too ... carried away.

WALT DISNEY CLASSICS FIGURINES - The Classics Collection started in 1992 with three scenes, Bambi, Cinderella, and Fantasia's Sorcerer Apprentice. Many other series have since been introduced. Some figurines are limited, and some have been retired. Some of these figurines have risen high on the secondary market.
The figurines are made of porcelain, and the process is similar to that use to make Hummel figurines. Individual pieces are molded, put together, and fired in an oven. Then they are painted and fired again.
Each figurine is marked on the bottom, signifying the year it was produced. The marks represent significant milestones in Disney history. The figurines with the first year mark are usually the most desirable. |
