Jiminy was introduced in Disney's second feature, Pinocchio, released Feb. 23, 1940. He represented a character identified in author Carlo Collodi's original book version only as "the talking cricket", and served as Pinoke's conscience — a role that got him righteously squashed in the book, but catapulted him to stardom in animation. Jiminy was designed by master animator Ward Kimball at the direction of Disney himself, who thought there was something missing from the Pinocchio film as it was originally proposed. Apparently, Jiminy was it, because many commentators think he pretty much stole the movie. The Cricket's voice was provided by Cliff "Ukelele Ike" Edwards, a minor radio actor of the 1930s and '40s who is best remembered for this role. It was rare back then for a character to appear in more than one Disney feature. Jiminy Cricket (Picture 3). Jiminy Cricket cartoon images gallery 3. Jiminy Cricket cartoon pictures collection 3. Mickey Mouse and Goofy were in two each during the 1940s and Donald Duck was in three, but they all rose to stardom in the cartoon shorts. Other than José Carioca, who, in the U.S. at least, took a straight road to near-oblivion after co-starring with Donald in Saludos Amigos and The Three Caballeros and making a walk-on in Melody Time, Jiminy is the only feature-original to appear in more than one during Disney's lifetime. His other role in theatrically-released features was as the announcer in Fun & Fancy Free, released Sept. 27, 1947. He reprised the announcer role in the variously-titled hour-long prime-time Disney TV series, which started in the mid-1950s. The company frequently chopped up its old cartoons to make themed TV shows (e.g., pulling Valentine's Day or Christmas sequences from them); and in these, Jiminy Cricket often served as master of ceremonies. Later, he was largely replaced in that role by Ludwig von Drake (who also replaced him as announcer in the TV version of Fun & Fancy Free). Jiminy Cricket (Picture 3).
