Joe Magro's Good Luck Book (1937)

“When Italian-American artist Joe Magro left the studio in 1937 following the production of Snow White, his Disney colleagues presented him with a ‘good luck’ book filled with gag drawings. The drawings from that book were auctioned by Heritage Auctions, and include pieces by a who’s who of animation legends including Fred Moore, Ward Kimball, Bill Tytla, Grim Natwick and Marc Davis, among others.”

Source

Included here are sketches by Bob Leffingwell, Ward Kimball, Woolie Reitherman, Charles “Nick” Nichols, Jack Larsen, Clyde Geronimi, Dick Lundy, Fred Moore and two by Marc Davis. Three (Kimball, Reitherman, Davis) became part of the group known as Disney's Nine Old Men.

The Wee Men (1947)

Director: Bill Tytla & Al Eugster

Technique: ¨The Wee Men¨ has little to no information in how it was made, but what we do know is that it´s a traditional animation captured in a 35mm technicolor format about 9:50 minutes long.

Representation: In the short film we follow a leprechaun called Paddy who is about to be 121 years old, and he is working with other leprechauns to make shoes for the poor. He is given the task to deliver these shoes to different houses in Ireland but faces some problems when he encounters a Greedy landlord that wants to steal the leprechauns´ gold, making paddy think of a solution to get rid of him and outsmarts him, protecting the gold and making it intime for his birthday celebration.

Reception: The short film was originally presented on theaters but other than that there is not much information about how the people reacted to it.

I was able to find this short on YouTube.
