Love this book. Interesting and lovely memories of past cartoons

Excelente libro, contiene el proceso de varios personajes.

Die Historie der Warner Bros. Movie Studios leitet diesen tollen Bildband auf mehreren Seiten ein, mit schwarz-weiß Fotos aus jener Zeit. Dazu ein ausführlicher Text.Dann treffen wir all unsere Freunde der „Looney Tunes“ in Farbe, und sogar die süßen Warner-Geschwister Yakko, Wakko und Dot („Animaniacs“) geben sich die Ehre.Die drei ulkigen Kerlchen hätten niemals das Licht der Welt erblickt, steht hier zu lesen, wäre den Machern nicht rechtzeitig genug eingefallen sie in den berühmten Warner Bros. Water Tower zu stecken ;-)

Produit conforme à mes attente, parfait quand on aime les dessin animées de style Tex Avery et consorts .Ultimate Treasures FR tiens ses engagements et je ne suis pas déçu, merci.

This huge book is a must-own for any fan of Bugs, Daffy, Yosemite, Foghorn, et al. Not only do you get a well-rounded look at every aspect of the Warner Bros. animation department and how it started, you're treated to hundreds and hundreds of drawn images, artwork and photos. Even the characters that only made one appearance in the cartoons are give multiple pictures in and out of the cartoon they starred in like Michigan J. Frog ('Hello my honey, hello my baby, hello my ragtime gaaaaalll') and the furry monster in high tops, Gossomer. I love all of those pre-1960 cartoons, especially those of Tex Avery. I can't find any fault in this book. It's huge and it is fully loaded with beautiful artwork. Due note, though, that a large portion of the artwork in this book are from the limited edition cells that WB used to sell in their retail stores for large dollars. It doesn't detract from my pleasure of it as many of them are faithful recreations of classic scenes and it gives you the unique opportunity to see these characters in (sometimes slightly) different situations or in variations of the original. The cover is thick with the 4 characters you see printed on what looks like a clear animation cell and the paper is thick. The craftsmanship is of this book (hardcover) is exceptional.I saw this in an antique store for fifty bucks, came to Amazon and picked it up for less than 10, shipped. It's worth fifty but you can't beat getting it for under ten bucks. It's a no-brainer and a wonderful gift for anyone that's a fan of these classic cartoons. When you see it, you'll know what I mean.

This is a must-have reference for those trying to draw the Looney Tunes, as well as those wanting to add this to a collection. The art in here is entirely re-produced cels just for collectors, instead of the original scenes from the show - so you will see quite a bit you've never seen.The best I love about this book are the oversized prints of those limited edition production cels. It also has a cel catalog in the back, allowing you to see supposedly all the art cels they've produced. The text is essentially a little history of the company, the franchise, and the characters - some nice knowledge to have if you love the show.There is also a chapter dedicated to the newer shows, although there's only a page or three on each of them with not that many graphics. Considering there has not been any other art books I know of on these shows, this book is even worth getting just for those: Animaniacs, Tiny Toons, Bat Man, Superman. Again, the supersized prints!
