"All About Magic" is a 1957 episode of the television series Disneyland.
Synopsis[]
Walt takes viewers down into the studio basement where all the magical props are displayed for our viewing, including a headless princess who comes to life, and a magic top hat that releases balloons, a rabbit and a white dove... all to the magic words "Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boo". Walt then calls upon the slave in the Magic Mirror (played again by Hans Conried) to take over as host of the program. The result is a compilation of magical-themed programming including the shorts Magician Mickey and Trick or Treat, the "Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boo" number from Cinderella, and "The Sorcerer's Apprentice" segment from Fantasia.
