Lots of Rudy Larriva. I'm guessing that the reason he didn't get screen credit is because he left the studio, not because he didn't have enough screen footage.
Now we have a bunch of Larriva shots on a 1949 sheet! This can't be from immediatley after the animation was finished.
Obviously Larriva must have animated this between 2/25/46 and 5/28/47 (thank you, Alberto Becatinni)...
Rudy Larriva was a rather meticulous animator, and sometimes his animation was rather slower, than the other animators (not referring to just Disney). Greg Duffell told me that Chuck Jones who used to have him in his unit and was his favorite animator and was absolutely devastated when he left Warners to work at Disney with Frank Thomas, and never spoken to him since then. He was apparently a very quiet, meek person - as what Greg told me who met him in 1975.
He does a good job with the Winkie scenes here, I must say.
