Richard, to further confuse the ratio issue, I believe the film was shot twice in two different formats: the Cinemascope version, of course, and a square version for 16mm educational release. I have a reel of the 16mm version and the layout is very different from the widescreen version that was released on DVD. I'll try to post some comparison screen grabs on my blog soon. You will be surprised at the differences. Oh my goodness, thanks for sharing these, Michael (and John!)

I'm surprised. With the efficiency of the Disney Studio, I would have figured the aspect ratio would be uniform throughout.
