Hello.
I am trying to locate a copy of a recording and a yahoo search came up with your fabulous website. Very nice job.
The album cover has Ed Wynn in a long night cap, reading from an upside down story book. It might be titled, “Fractured Fairy Tales” and contains a reference to Cinderfella and Foxy Loxy. I do know that Ed Wynn appeared in the Jerry Lewis film, Cinderfella, but think the album was based on the Bullwinkle Show.
I have tried several sources, to no avail. The album was a childhood favorite of a friend of mine and I would love to be able to surprise him with a copy. I would truly appreciate any information you may have on the subject.
Thank you very much.

Yes, I’m afraid I don’t know. An interesting piece of trivia though; Paul Frees used the Ed Wynn voice for a character on Bullwinkle that appeared every now and then. This cartoon character was Captain Peachfuzz. Later on, Jay Ward and Bill Scott apparently liked that voice so much, that they had Frees repeat it, as Fred the Lion, in their Super Chicken series, on The George of the Jungle Show. Fred was Super Chicken’s side kick.
Anyway, I will ask Greg to post this email on the Peabody’s Pony Express, in the hope that maybe someone will read it, and be able to help out……..But let’s face it; for someone new to our website, finding your email, among all the other things on our site, will kind of be like looking for a needle in a hay stack………..Sorry that I cannot help out more………. and good luck!
