The Three Merchants

The Three Merchants are three men, one tall and skinny, one medium and skinny, and the last short and round from Disney's 1978 animated Christmas short film, The Small One, who walk around the marketplace taking money from people, "for the bank". They are the ones who point the boy to the auctioneer.
