Luno the White Stallion is a Terrytoons cartoon character active from 1963 to 1965. The series of cartoons centered on a little boy named Tim who had a toy horse of marble white named Luno, who would come alive and whisk him off on adventures in far off lands when Tim said the words, "Oh winged horse of marble white, take me on a magic flight". The series was produced by William Weiss, and directed by Connie Rasinski and Arthur Bartsch. [1]
Six Luno shorts were released theatrically; eleven further shorts aired as backup segments in the Terrytoons television shows The Astronut Show and Deputy Dawg. [2] Five of the shorts produced for The Astronut Show were later released theatrically in the mid-1970s. [3]
