The Story Behind Pecos Bill...
Pecos Bill was a cartoon character featured in the 1948 Disney cartoon film "Melody Time" which was based on the 1917 publication of a book entitled "The Saga of Pecos Bill". Pecos Bill was also a character played by Wally Boag in his original Golden Horseshoe Revue. This character along with other historic and [sometimes imaginary] characters created the cast of the 1981 Disneyland Summer nighttime show, Pecos Bill's Wild West Revue.
