1.) Daffy's role as a salesman would be used again in
The Stupor Salesman (1948),
Fool Coverage (1952), and
Design for Leaving (1954).
Elmer Fudd is Daffy's foil in the latter cartoon.
2.) This cartoon served as the genesis of the plot for the 1988 compilation feature
Daffy Duck's Quackbusters. In the film, Cubish "dies laughing" and leaves his entire fortune to Daffy, on the grounds that he use it to perform a beneficial public service "and to display honesty in all business affairs". When Cubish returns in spectral form and threatens to take away Daffy's inheritance, Daffy forms a ghost-hunting business to "rid the world of disgusting ectoplasmic slime like J.P. Cubish!...Uh, I mean,
nice ectoplasmic slime like J.P. Cubish."
3.) This was one of only five post-1948 WB cartoons to get a Blue Ribbon reissue prior to 1956 - with the original credits cut. The others were
The Foghorn Leghorn,
Kit For Cat,
Scaredy Cat, and
You Were Never Duckier.
Daffy Dilly is still the only one remaining to not have its original titles restored for DVD release (and also the only one of these to have been originally released in Cinecolor; the others were released in Technicolor), however, a print of the original version is in possession of the Old Greenbelt Theatre in Greenbelt, Maryland. Recently, a print of
Daffy Dilly with a.a.p. titles was discovered, although, again, this was a post-1948 cartoon (Thus the print might have been given to a.a.p. by mistake. This print no longer exists on YouTube as of 2016).
4.) Despite the existence of an original print, the restored version as seen on
Looney Tunes Super Stars' Daffy Duck: Frustrated Fowl is the Blue Ribbon version (it is not known if WB was aware of the original print's existence or not). It is the only creditless Blue Ribbon retained by WB to be presented as such on DVD.
5.) Forty years later, this cartoon was edited into
Daffy Duck's Quackbusters.
