The [[Brontosaurus]] model and miniature jungle set from the 1960 film ''[[Dinosaurus!]]'' were used for the [[stop motion]] animation.

LaGuardia Airport, although it had opened in October 1939 (and thus was open during the second half of the 1939–40 World's Fair held in New York), was not officially named after Mayor [[Fiorello H.
