Sunday Funnies: Mickey's 50 (1978)

 In 1978, Disney & NBC marked a pair of milestones.

First, in September, the network feted the studio on 25 years of television programming with a 2 part season premiere of The Wonderful World of Disney, part 1 of which is over at The Land of Whatever.

Two months later, it was time to honor Mickey Mouse on his 50th birthday.

"Mickey's 50" is just as star packed as the 25th anniversary show, with narrators including Jack Albertson (Grandpa Goes to Washington), Dean Jones, Dick Clark (American Bandstand), Elton John, Johnny Carson, and Gene Kelly, plus contributions from Edgar Bergen, Peter Sellers, Rich Little, and much more.
