Freddy Moore/Kent Melton sculpture on the horizon!

My pal Ron Murphy alerted me to a new sculpture based on an old Fred Moore (DISNEY) drawing, that is coming out in February 2011 from ELECTRIC TIKI. It is beautifully sculpted by one of my favorite sculptors...Kent Melton. Ron and I have always loved Fred's Disney girl designs and I have many of Kent's sculptures in my collection :)







Arthur Rankin, Jr., Masaki Iizuka and Jules Bass




Some serious JAY WARD fun!
A fascinating story that I only knew bits and pieces of...Really like the way the story was told! Break on through to the other side!!!!

ED KEAN R.I.P.

Mr. Kean was the head writer for the series, wrote the theme song and even came up with the word "Cowabunga"!

Frank sent along some cool pics from his collection!

Here are a few ads that my friend Ron Murphy gave me a while back. A perfect example of a Great advertising character. Ad agencies of today haven't a clue to a good advertising character. Have you seen the animated character on the HONDA commercials? You know...the one they call "Mr. Opportunity"...the one doing "The knock"? So funny, I forgot to laugh. Who designed this character??? Better yet, who gave the green light and is paying for this ad campaign????!!!
