Information About the Film
---------------------------------------------
This was originally part of the Manga Sekai Mukashi Banashi series and might have aired in Japan around 1977 (one date I've found says December 8th, 1977, but I cannot confirm source.) It was dubbed into English under the title World's Greatest Tales. Some episodes of the anime were also released in English under Tales of Magic. Not much else is known about the anime itself. Fred Ladd was one of the early adapters of Japanese cartoons such as Astro Boy and Gigantor.

About the Video
---------------------------------------------
First, I'd like to credit AnnainCA who had originally uploaded this cartoon onto Youtube years ago. I was made aware of this from their video and the English audio in my video is from hers (though edited by me to reduce noise).

My video itself would have been impossible without Curiouser and Curiouser who informed me that there was an Italian DVD, for combining the Italian video with the English audio, and for editing in the English credits. His Alice channel is here: @curiouserarchive

And additional thanks to Christopher Sobieniak for additional information and for supplying the original uploader's name (which I had forgotten).

Also, it's interesting to note that the original cartoon has a short opening cut out of the English dub in which a hand takes the book out of the bookcase and we see an illustration of the Rabbit and of the riverbank before it transitions. I had wanted to keep it, but there was no equivalent English audio to match up. We decided to go the easier route and put in the English credits instead. I do sort of wish we tried anyway so if I ever track down better English audio, I may redo this and keep the intro in.

*Nickelodeon Opening Inquiries: The original upload by AnnaninCA featured an 'Orange You Glad You're Watching Nick' bumper and I know many viewers were fond of it. We thought it best to take it out as it wasn't part of the cartoon itself and Nicklodeon is still an operating channel with copyright protection. If anyone really wants the cartoon with the bumper, I still have the original AnnaninCA video on Dailymotion, but it's not high quality. http://dai.ly/x1zv0t7
