- The film used in the show was shot in 70mm format using a special process created by Disney Legend Ub Iwerks.
- Through George W. Bush, all the presidents were sculpted by Disney Legend Blaine Gibson; Barack Obama's Animatronic version was sculpted by his apprentice Valerie Edwards.
- Royal Dano was the original voice of Mr. Lincoln, as he also was in the World's Fair and early Disneyland versions. When the show was redone in 1993, Dano had become ill, and Lincoln was voiced by Peter Renaday (who also served as a narrator on The Walt Disney Story version of Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln, and provided the narration for the Magic Kingdom's Tomorrowland Transit Authority from 1994 to 2009).
- Abraham Lincoln, George Washington, and Barack Obama are A-100 model Audio-Animatronic figures, a line of the most advanced, lifelike, and expressive human figures WDI has ever built.

Famous quotes containing the words production and/or notes:
“The growing of food and the growing of children are both vital to the family’s survival.... Who would dare make the judgment that holding your youngest baby on your lap is less important than weeding a few more yards in the maize field? Yet this is the judgment our society makes constantly. Production of autos, canned soup, advertising copy is important. Housework—cleaning, feeding, and caring—is unimportant.”
—Debbie Taylor (20th century)
“A little black thing among the snow
Crying “’weep, ‘weep,” in notes of woe!
“Where are thy father & mother? say?”
“They are both gone up to the church to pray.”
—William Blake (1757–1827)
