Disney Advertising Postcard for the Porcelain Pinocchio and Jiminy

Perched on a flower Jiminy listened as Pinocchio exclaimed, "I'm going to be an actor." Patiently, Jiminy reminded Pinocchio about temptation and that Pinocchio needed to tell Foulfellow that he couldn't go to the theatre, but had to go to school. Jiminy was in for a surprise.

** I have two of these exact same postcards - one is from Walt Disney World and one from Disneyland. The writing on the back is almost the same too.

Mickey and Minnie with Pluto and Morty and Ferdie

After posting this on a few Disney forums, I think this is Mickey and Minnie, with Pluto and Mickey's nephews Morty and Ferdie in the bull costume. It looks like there could be one hiding in the back of the costume? maybe? Well, whoever it is, I hope the picnic was fun :D

The back reads:
Walt Disney Productions
Made in Italy

Mickey and Goofy with a Seal or Sea Lion

Does anyone know the name of this seal? I'm pretty sure there is a Disney short featuring it.

Artist Goofy with Mickey Mouse holding a sea lion on a rope.

The back reads:

Charles Lutwidge Dodgson (27 January 1832 – 14 January 1898), better known by the pen name Lewis Carroll was an English writer, mathematician, logician, Anglican deacon and photographer. His most famous writings are Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and its sequel Through the Looking-Glass, as well as the poems "The Hunting of the Snark" and "Jabberwocky", all examples of the genre of literary nonsense. He is noted for his facility at word play, logic, and fantasy, and there are societies in many parts of the world (including the United Kingdom, Japan, the United States, and New Zealand) dedicated to the enjoyment and promotion of his works.
