Tex Avery: The MGM Years, 1942-1955

Atlanta: Turner Publishing, Inc.. Fine in Near Fine dj. First American Edition. Hardcover. [a lovely copy, no discernible wear to book; the jacket has some very slight wear along the top edge and a bit of scuffing to the rear panel, but still presents beautifully in a new mylar cover]. (color/B&W illustrations and photos) Nicely-produced and lavishly-illustrated survey of the great animation director's most creative period, during which he made many of the cartoons for which he is best remembered today: RED HOT RIDING HOOD, BAD LUCK BLACKIE, KING-SIZE CANARY, DRAG-A-LONG DROOPY, and many others. The Foreword and Introduction are by two of Avery's contemporaries, William Hanna and Chuck Jones, respectively. ****NOTE that additional postage charges will be assessed for international shipping of this heavy oversize book; if this concerns you, please contact us for a shipping quote before placing your order.
