THE FESTIVAL OF FAMILY CLASSICS


RANKIN/BASS did a wonderful series called FESTIVAL OF FAMILY CLASSICS that Paul Coker, Jr. designed in the early 1970's. It was a cel animated show and featured many of the literary classics. They are often used in school classrooms these days. In fact, this is how my kids were introduced to RANKIN/BASS. Some are available on DVD right now and others I am having transferred to collector's DVDs such as PAUL BUNYAN, YANKEE DOODLE DANDY, THE CHRISTMAS TREE, JACK O' LANTERN and others.
