One of the first, meaning one of the earliest.  It may have been the
first, since the release date is 1938.  Frankly, I'm more familiar with
the Technicolor process than movie history.  Technicolor was a three
film black and white primary color separation process used to produce a
dye transfer projection film.  It was expensive, but far better suited
to the movie industry than any of the single emulsion color films
available, so I'm fairly certain The Adventures of Robin Hood was filmed
in Technicolor.

In case there is any question about my having seen a colorized version,
I was able to view a freshly remastered The Adventures of Robin Hood in
1968 or 1969 in brilliant color.  The colorization process we know and
despise so often was not commercially available until the 1980s.
