right, good question.   who are these  people?

the disney comic books werent produced by Disney,  but by Western Printing
Disney didnt have animation in New York (as far as I  know)
wasnt the comic strip division on the west coast?  

on the  other hand, didnt the former Kay Kamen, Inc (owned by Disney after 
Kamen's  death?) have their office in NYC?  doing Disney promotional and 
advertising  artwork?  that's a possiblility.
