Saved some stuff -- reels, storyboards, time sheets etc. I’m one of Paul Fennells’ sons and remember going to my fathers animation/motion picture studio and talking to the artists - Don Jurwich, Charlie Burns, Lawrence Silverman, Hicks Lokey, Don Driscol, Zyg Jablecki, Rudy Zamora, Lee Blaire, Ed Benedict - must get your book.

And wow, that sounds so cool to have worked on archiving that collection. A couple years back, the Hubley family moved the collection from Yale to MoMA, but it's still intact. And like you say, it's amazing. I've only seen a little bit of it, but know what's in it and it's priceless stuff. I hope the family decides to do an entire book of that art someday.

Can't wait for the book. Hope you have lots more on Hubley--John and Faith donated their papers to Yale and I got the job of archiving them one semester as an undergrad. It's an amazing collection. Hope you checked it out. Best of luck with the book. What a great site you have. Can’t wait for the book.

Looking forward to the book and more in the blog Amid. Any other caricatures here or there? That’s great, I love the exaggeration and the pallete.

Born in 1956, I can remember in high school and college being more than a little disdainful of '50s animation; but somewhere along the line--to be honest, probably all along the line, given the solid unbroken nostalgia for the '50s both early and late boomers maintain--I began to appreciate the distinctive lines and techniques of this era. For me, that appreciation first arrived via my affection for 1950s pulp SF magazine covers, which I think share some of the sensibilities of the things you're considering. In any case, looking at these images gives me a distinctive shock of recognition; for better or worse, this is a look that has deeply affected the aesthetic sensibilities of post-WWW II Americans. Thanks for your book; best of luck with sales. James Lileks’ site led me here; I can’t wait for the book.
