<p>[QUOTE="Ladybranch, post: 59656, member: 44"]Gee, I thought in a matter of minutes I could ID these cartoon characters. Boy, was I wrong. I haven't found a one. I agree that supposedly Carmen Miranda character as being a parrot, Brazilian parrot. The closest I could come to one was back in the 1940s Disney came up with a **male** Brazilian parrot character called José "Joe" Carioca. He used this character in the travel documentary of South America, film, <i>Saludos Amigos, South of the Border. </i>It was in answer to Rockerfellow's Office of Inter-American Affairs call for improved relations Latin America. This character appears in several of Disney's films. Nowwww this was a male character. I really doubt Disney would have presented a cross-dressed, transvestite, back in "them-thar-days."</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://screened.blogspot.com/2005/10/saludos-amigos.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://screened.blogspot.com/2005/10/saludos-amigos.html" rel="nofollow">http://screened.blogspot.com/2005/10/saludos-amigos.html</a></p><p><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jos%C3%A9_Carioca" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jos%C3%A9_Carioca" rel="nofollow">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/José_Carioca</a></p><p><a href="https://www.google.com/search?q=Joe+Carioca&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ei=66tlVcO0FoykgwTHhYOYDg&ved=0CC0QsAQ&biw=1024&bih=591" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.google.com/search?q=Joe+Carioca&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ei=66tlVcO0FoykgwTHhYOYDg&ved=0CC0QsAQ&biw=1024&bih=591" rel="nofollow">https://www.google.com/search?q=Joe+Carioca&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ei=66tlVcO0FoykgwTHhYOYDg&ved=0CC0QsAQ&biw=1024&bih=591</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Weren't these types of cut-outs called dancing something?</p><p><br /></p><p>--- Susan[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
