Never heard of this before, got three movies today, Bear Trouble, Lion Around and this Rescue of Maida

I would like to try to find on imdb, but didn't find anything ... Is it italian production too?

Hello Vidar,I wouldn't put too much faith in IMDB as it is littered
with mistakes, on top of that as some members are discussing in another thread,some releasing companies change titles, so that
complicates things a bit.I'll have a look in "Reference Guide for
Fantastic Films" which covers cartoons, but I can only go on the
titles given."Bear" with me.

I've had a look Vidar, the "Rescue of Maida"", the closest I can get to that is "Rescue in Mid-Air" a film from GB 1906 concerning a girl
that is blown onto a steeple through a car crash and an airship
rescue that results in its crashing.
" Bear Trouble" could be the "Bear & the Mouse", real animals enacting
Aesops fables a Canadian colour 8 min film from 1966,or the 1949
"Bear Feat" an animated cartoon from Chuck Jones 7 mins .
The other "Lion Around is a Walt Disney cartoon.

Thank you. It's a cartoon the Rescue movie ... And I did reckon the Disney was just a short (Lion Around)

I do not think the italian cartoon is that old, but I'll check it out when I get my projector
