The Three Bears (Postcard, 1913)
"Dearest Mary,
...This is a picture of four of my kiddies who dramatized the old story of The Three Bears for an entertainment. I wish you might see them. They are darlings. Grandfather talks of going E. this summer and tho I get quite thrilled don;t know if it will happen. I am crazy to see you all again. Do write soon. Heaps of love. Ellen.
St.Paul, Minn.: April 21, 1913."

"The infamous disturbing scene from the 1985 claymation film The Adventures of Mark Twain, The Mysterious Stranger.
This scene is based on the unfinished novella The Mysterious Stranger, written of course by Mark Twain, who died before completion. I highly recommend reading this story if you have not already. You can find it here." (uploader, youtube)
