"Osh Popham" Propietor of the Emporium. If you look closely at the windows alongside the southwest corner Emporium entrance, youll see the words, Osh Popham named as the proprietor of the happy, bustling shop. But who is Osh? Hes actually a character who was played by Oscar-winning actor/singer Burl Ives in the charming 1963 Walt Disney feature film, Summer Magic, co-starring Hayley Mills.
In the film, Osh was a shopkeeper, postmaster and good-natured meddler. He helped the struggling Carey family find a new home in the little town of Beulah, Maine. For the character of Osh Popham, the Sherman brothers wrote two of their most memorable tunes: Ugly Bug Ball and On the Front Porch, which is Roberts personal favorite Sherman Brothers song.
Ugly Bug Ball became an international success, with several cover version by other artists and years of airplay on British radio. It also became the title song of a nice little show in a bugs land at Disney California Adventure park.
Bgosh, Osh! You may have even noticed hearing Summer Magic songs during your leisurely strolls down Main Street, U.S.A., as part of the instrumental background music!
