Walt Disney 1955 Nash Commercials With Mickey Mouse Designed By Tom Oreb

Commercials for the American Motors 1955 Nash automobiles designed by the late, great Tom Oreb in the Walt Disney TV commercial unit. Quoting from the wonderful book 'Cartoon Modern' by Amid Amidi, "There was a little kid that used to write to Walt telling him to stay away from modern art because it's Communistic. So when the commercial came on, he got a letter from this kid, a little malcontent sitting somewhere, and he wrote, "I'm disappointed Walt. I never thought you'd succumb. What happened to you?" and Walt went crazy. He stormed down there and outlawed using any of the Disney characters in the commercials...spelling the end of the unit." These commercials, along with many other mid-century animation gems can be found on this dvd: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007...
