Title
Paul Bunyan
Description
Walt Disney cartoon rendition of the American folklore tale about a woodsman from the Northeast and Midwest named Paul Bunyan. This cartoon also incorporates another piece of folklore from French Canada - the character of Joseph Montferrand (or Joe Muffaw) - who rivals Paul, and whose history as a woodcutter in eastern Canada developed into tales that were passed down as folklore through French Canadian immigration to New England and the Middle West. See George Monteiro's article in #287 of the Journal of American Folklore, "Histoire de Montferrand: L'Athlete Canadien and Joe Mufraw."
