Disney Directory 07/1967 (I)
Today and the next two days I will post the phone directory of the Disney Studio of July 1967. It is half a year after Walt's passing, the month that The Happiest Millionaire premiered at The Pantages in Hollywood, three months before The Jungle Book's release.
Since I do not have the WED/MAPO/RETLAW or Disneyland parts of the directory currently available to me, it is ONLY the studio part...
We see the "Data Processing" department, with Computer Room and Tabulating & Keypunch. How modern!
In the name part, I found it interesting to see how many times we find the last name of someone we know from the 30s, with different first names--or a lady's first name as well as a gent's. It seems that for many, this was a family business. Mind you, I don't blame them, as long as their offspring doesn't just throw out their "old junk," for it can contain a wealth of information on how the films were produced, and for me, that's what it's all about...

There's a "Joe Barbera" in there.
Moonlighting after hours, no doubt... Though, after due consideration, I'd guess it to be ANOTHER Joe Barbera (how many Joe Barberi can there be???)
