Amid sends us this link to "a Flickr set from the collection of artist Ray Aragon showing layout and background artists during the production of Sleeping Beauty and 101 Dalmatians. Also includes photos of them during lunch hour exploring the Zorro set on the Disney backlot."

These photos, from the collection of Ray Aragon, were taken in June and July 1958 at Disney Studios. Most of the artists in these pics worked in the layout and background departments at Disney. At the time they were completing work on Sleeping Beauty and beginning production on 101 Dalmatians.
