Storyline
| Plot Summary |
A live action black-and-white prolog tells the story of how Walt Disney came to Hollywood with $300, was rejected by all the major studios, but went on to tremendous success, many awards, and a thriving studio. Titles then ask what this means to the Standard Oil Salesman, and a parade of Disney characters gives us the answer, featuring Mickey as drum major, Minnie carrying a banner, and the 7 Dwarfs carrying the letters "STANDARD" (Dopey gets stuck with the last two): Apparently the various ads for Standard will be featuring Disney characters in the coming year.

| Trivia | Toby Tortoise from the Silly Symphony Cartoons "The Tortoise and the Hare (1935)" from 1935 and "Toby Tortoise Returns (1936)" from 1936 in "The Standard Parade" from 1939 has a browner color scheme than usual, and is thus the only character in the short to have a different look.
