DELUXE CD!

I actually Co-Produced this CD with RHINO and WARNER BROTHERS MUSIC. It is available at a GREAT price at AMAZON. Has a nice booklet with original LP artwork too. The original LPs were extremely RARE and sought after. JUNE FORAY does the voice of KAREN on the FROSTY THE SNOWMAN Soundtrack!

Another PINOCCHIO treasure!

Picked this classic JAY WARD cel up today at auction...

Love watching the pilot to this! This was one of my favorites as a child.

KING KONG ESCAPES (1968)

Here is a picture of RHODES REASON star of RANKIN/BASS' features film KING KONG ESCAPES being interviewed by our friend Brett Homenick at a Sci Fi convention this past July. Mechi Kong stands tall in the foreground. The film was released on DVD last year for all to enjoy.

THE NEW ADVENTURES OF PINOCCHIO

I have been dubbing and watching alot of THE NEW ADVENTURES OF PINOCCHIO lately! O'LAFFERTY is a leprechaun in one of the episodes. What a GREAT series. Thought I would share one of the coloring books from one of the box sets

THE BERMUDA DEPTHS

Found my copy of the RANKIN/BASS film THE BERMUDA DEPTHS starring BURL IVES (Seen here on the set with Todd Rankin). What an erie film. I can see why it has built such a cult following over the years. I get many requests for copies of the film!

BERNARD COWAN

BERNARD COWAN was a VERY important part of the RANKIN/BASS History! He directed all of those wonderful voice actors in CANADA on TALES OF THE WIZARD OF OZ, THE NEW ADVENTURES OF PINOCCHIO, RUDOLPH THE RED-NOSED REINDEER, etc. He also narrated THE NEW ADVENTURES OF PINOCCHIO and did many incidenatal voices. You may remember his voice as the narrator on the 1966 MARVEL CARTOONS!
