- This dubbing was recorded in 1941, along with Bambi, The Reluctant Dragon and some shorts of Mickey Mouse.
- This was the only time João de Barro dubbed a Disney character. It's Walt Disney himself who suggested him as Timothy when he came to Brazil to present Fantasia in August 1940. He won a golden watch from Walt for his great hobs at translating and directing "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs" and "Pinocchio".
- It was rumored that Verna Felton dubbed Mrs. Jumbo in this first Brazilian dubbing, but this has been proven wrong.
- Similarly, while its first line was done by the choir, it seems the line of Casey Junior ("I think I can [...] I thought I could"), was recorded by an unknown actor, and an accent can be heard.

- *Internet sites mention Aloysio de Oliveira as the Narrator, but it seems it's not his voice.
- The Businessman, who screams "Tickets available" / "Come to see the circus" wasn't dubbed in this dubbing, and his lines were said by Joaquim "Luis" Motta, the voice of the Ringmaster.
- **The 1998 VHS displayed the 1973 Opening Titles with the 1973 cast instead of the 1998 cast - but still included the new dubbing.
