Did You Know?
| Trivia | The last 2 reels contain 2006 feet of 2-strip Technicolor footage, which was thought to be lost, and is hence missing from the 1956 television release prints and some public domain VHS and DVD copies, but which was rescued by film historian David Chierichetti, preserved by the UCLA film archives, and has now been restored to the original version.
