[edit] Kevin Corcoran

Nice job on correcting and fleshing out the siblings info! If there's anything else you can think of to add to the article (and have a reliable source for), "be bold" and put it in! Karen | Talk | contribs 21:43, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Adventure in Dairyland

Considering that at least one person wants to merge the Annette serial into the Mickey Mouse Club article (which would be way too long if we started merging in each notable serial), do you think there should be an article on (An) Adventure in Dairyland? I've never seen it, of course, but it does have minor notability for having introduced Kevin Corcoran as the first iteration of Moochie, and for having Annette in it. Is that enough? All I really have to go in is the Cotter book and Corcoran's Disney Legends profile, but two sources are better than none! --Karen | Talk | contribs 07:39, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

I agree that merging the Disney serials into the Mickey Mouse Club article would make it even more unwieldy than it is today. If anything, would suggest splitting out the 1990's MMC from the earlier two incarnations, as the former is the one generating most controversy and changes. Regarding Adventure in Dairyland, I think it's worth doing an article on it, but it may be tough to find sources other than the two you cited.--Saratoga Sam 12:29, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Photo with Brig General Herbert Holdridge

Saratoga Sam / Others,

I was just given an old black and white picture with Brig General Herbert Holdridge and two others from September 3, 1961 at the countract signing of my grandfathers first book. I'd like to talk to anyone who may be able to help with a little history as to why Holdridge was present?

General Holdridge was a man of widespread intellectual interests, and maintained correspondence with a number of notable people during the 1950's and 60's. Holdridge was not really an original thinker or creative writer himself, but enjoyed the company of those who were. Oh, and he loved publicity...any event where he could get reporters attention or his picture in the paper, and he'd be there. That's about all I could offer you in the way of explanation as to why he was present at the book signing.--Saratoga Sam (talk) 22:26, 12 December 2007 (UTC)
