## Production

* Shires announced the film as a live-action feature in 1921 to make the film released by 1926, but is cancelled in 1924.
* In 1936, the film was revived as an animated feature to become Shires' second animated film. However, the film was cancelled again before World War II began in 1939.
* After World War II ended in 1945, the film was revived again and is finally finished in late 1950.
* Thus, it became a sharp disappointment at the Box Office.
