Trivia / The Surprising Adventures of Baron Munchausen

• Accidentally Correct Zoology: In the first story, the Baron is accosted by a lion in a hunting trip in Sri Lanka. In 1939 it was discovered fossil evidence that lions inhabited Sri Lanka thirty-seven thousand years ago.
• Completely Different Title: Saturnino Calleja's Spanish translation renamed the book "El Barón de la Castaña".
• Referenced by...: In the Bugs Bunny cartoon Rabbit Hood, Bugs has conned the Sheriff of Nottingham into thinking he's the king, and that Bugs is going to knight him.
  Bugs: Arise, Sir Loin of Beef! *strikes Sheriff over the head with his scepter* Arise, Earl (oil) of Cloves! *strike* Arise, Duke of Brittingham! *strike* Arise, Baron of Munchausen!
