The records came in a 24-page full-color Giant Storybook Album, which was the closest way for children to experience the film’s story and songs before the age of home video. The recordings included the story and music just as on the screen and with the original Disney voices, including Ed Wynn as the Mad Hatter, Sterling Holloway as the Cheshire Cat, Jerry Cologna as the March Hare, and Kathryn Beaumont as Alice.
Several other classic Disney properties were available as RCA Victor Children's Records, including “Snow White,” “Peter and the Wolf,” “Pinocchio,” “Dumbo,” “Johnny Appleseed,” “Pecos Bill,” “Bambi” and “Cinderella.”

From Wikipedia:
Faith Domergue (June 16, 1924 – April 4, 1999) was an American television and film actress.
Early life and career
Born in New Orleans, Domergue was adopted by Adabelle Wemet when she was six weeks old. When Faith was 18 months old (in 1926), Adabelle married Leo Domergue. The family moved to California in 1928 where Domergue attended Beverly Hills Catholic School and St. Monica's Convent School. While still at University High School, she was signed to a Warner Brothers contract, and made her first on-screen appearance in Blues in the Night (1941).
After graduating in 1942, Domergue continued to pursue a career in acting, but after sustaining injuries in a near-fatal car accident, her plans were put on hold. While recuperating from the accident, she attended a party aboard Howard Hughes' yacht. Hughes was 'taken' by her, buying out her contract with Warner, and signed her to a three-picture deal with RKO.
After an unsuccessful, long-delayed premiere in the film Vendetta (1950), Domergue left Hughes. She later freelanced in a number of films, including film noir Where Danger Lives (as a femme fatale opposite Robert Mitchum), westerns (Santa Fe Passage) and in 1955, three sci-fi/monster films (It Came from Beneath the Sea, This Island Earth and Cult of the Cobra).
She later made films in the United Kingdom and Italy, and a last sci-fi foray in Voyage to the Prehistoric Planet (1965), an American version of a Russian film. In the late 1950s and 1960s she made many appearances on popular television series, including Sugarfoot, Have Gun Will Travel, Bonanza, and The Rifleman. She appeared in two episodes of Perry Mason, starring Raymond Burr. In 1961 she played murderer Conception O'Higgins in "The Case of the Guilty Clients," and in 1963 she played murder victim Cleo Grammas in "The Case of the Greek Goddess." By the late 1960s, Domergue had lost interest in acting as a career; her last acting appearances were mainly in low-budget 'B' horror movies.
She began traveling to Rome, Italy, in 1952, and lived there for extended periods. She moved there permanently in 1968, and remained an expatriate in Rome, Geneva, Switzerland, and Marbella, Spain, until the death of her Roman husband, Paolo in 1991. She then moved to Santa Barbara where she resided until her death in 1999.
Personal life and death
In 1941, Domergue began an on-off relationship with Howard Hughes. After she discovered that Hughes was also seeing Ava Gardner, Rita Hayworth, and Lana Turner, the couple broke up in 1943. She later wrote a book about her relationship with Hughes entitled My Life with Howard Hughes (1972).
In 1946, Domergue married bandleader Teddy Stauffer. The marriage lasted six months, ending in 1947. That same year, she married director Hugo Fregonese with whom she had two children, Diana Maria and John Anthony. The couple divorced in 1958. In 1966, she married Paolo Cossa, with whom she remained until his death in 1992.
On April 4, 1999, Domergue died from cancer, aged 74.
In the 2004 Howard Hughes biopic film The Aviator, Domergue was played by Kelli Garner

Life magazine, stylized LIFE, was an American magazine that ran weekly from 1883 to 1972, published initially as a humor and general interest magazine. Time founder Henry Luce bought the magazine in 1936, solely so that he could acquire the rights to its name, and shifted it to a role as a weekly news magazine with a strong emphasis on photojournalism. Life was published weekly until 1972, as an intermittent "special" until 1978, and as a monthly from 1978 to 2002.

Charles Dana Gibson (1867-1944) was a highly popular illustrator for major national magazines during the first quarter of the 20th century. He created elegant pen and ink illustrations that were evocative of American life, his most popular creation being the glamorous and independent Gibson Girl. He first established her popularity in “Life” magazine in the two years 1899-1900, creating almost weekly images illustrating romantic and other relationships.

Over a thousand Chicagoans from all over the city, gathered at Millennium Park to perform "Crowd Out" by David Lang.
Eye-catching advertisement for Dr. West's Miracle-Tuft Toothbrush from the July 13, 1942 issue of Life Magazine.

Let's do the math: Its assurance of a full year of effective service for only 50 cents. That works out to 2/10ths of a cent PER DAY! I guess healthy teeth were only for the wealthy in 1942...
Over a thousand Chicagoans, from all walks of life and all parts of the city, came together at Millennium Park to perform "Crowd Out" by Davind Lang.
Although a bit chaotic in the beginning, once the leaders of each of the small groups that formed the whole got things in sync, it became a beautiful performance and a moving experience.
I came upon this event purely by accident and it took me a while to figure out what was going on.
Once surrounded by all these people, I was pretty much stuck, so you see some of the same faces over and over again.
