Joe Besser played "The Green Man," a live-action elf surrounded by animated characters in this one-reel screen test.
Call sheets indicate that Besser filmed 15 minutes of footage on Disney's Stage 4, July 13 - 14, 1959. The project was abandoned, and Disney archives have no storage record of this footage. Disney records indicate that the footage may have still existed in 1965, possibly for use in NBC's Sunday night WALT DISNEY'S WONDERFUL WORLD OF COLOR; nothing beyond that note supports this conjecture.
