MAURY & KAREN LAWS
I just watched RANKIN/BASS' SANTA CLAUS IS COMIN' TO TOWN, which is Maury Laws' favorite RANKIN/BASS special and one of mine too! The soundtrack is outstanding! You can read more about Maury's musical career at www.maurylaws.com and check out some of his RANKIN/BASS songs at www.myspace.com/rankinbass I can not say enough good things about him! His music will live on forever and it perfectly captures the spirit of the season!

www.timeandspacetoys.com The HIT of the 2009 Holiday season! RANKIN/BASS' THE LITTLE DRUMMER BOY Nativity scenesBUILD-A-BEAR WORKSHOP
I picked up a few HOCUS POCUS characters today. The FROSTY doll is selling well...he has lights that flicker in his face and in the flower on his hat. The BUILD-A-BEAR counter is well stocked with the RANKIN/BASS TV Special on DVD....too bad it has no extra content...they actually took off Arthur Rankin's introduction and explanation of the special???? One day, when the special is in the right hands, hopefully they will add some BONUS content to the DVD again, that includes something more than the horrible FROSTY RETURNS.
A few pages from my book THE ENCHANTED WORLD OF RANKIN/BASS: A PORTFOLIO
The first published pictures of the restored SANTA CLAUS and RUDOLPH THE RED-NOSED REINDEER ANIMAGIC figures!
