Sorry to learn that my friend Chris Mau passed away this morning. He ran the Geekzcon in Elgin, that I appeared at a few times. He and his wife also owned the Blue Box Cafe (where I ate). Even sadder, I just learned his wife passed in February. Sad days for their kids. #chrismau #geekzcon

I added another Frosty MGM promo to the Rankin/Bass archives today. You may be surprised how scarce they are, compared to other Rankin/Bass soundtracks...I write about the various versions in my book Frosty the Snowman's 50th Anniversary Scrapbook (Miser Bros Press). The soundtrack includes my late, great friend June Foray Donovan as Karen, later replaced by Suzanne Davidson in the TV special as Karen. I Co-Produced the 2002 Digi-pack cd release for Warner Bros music/Rhino, which was the ultimate release from the masters. #Frostythesnowman #rankinbassproductions #maurylaws #julesbass

My first article on my friend George Maharis is out in ReMind Magazine! My next one will be in issue #20 of RetroFan magazine. What a great issue of ReMind with lots of friends featured in the Where are they now? Section. Fun stuff! Subscribe...much more to come! #remindmagazine #georgemaharis #route66

I have too many Christmas tree ornaments anyway. These are by far the worst sculpts to date of any R/B Hallmark ornaments! accessories and poses that have nothing to do with the TV Specials. The good news is, I don't need to get them 😁

Paul Coker, Jr.

I just got off the phone with my pal Rankin/Bass Designer, Paul Coker, Jr. We had a long talk and I had quite a bit to fill him in on. He sounds great at 92 and staying healthy. He said it has been a while since he has drawn anything, but what a great output he has had over the years. #Paulcokerjr #Rankinbassproductions #madmagazine #Frostythesnowman #Heatmiser #Snowmiser #Thewackyworldofmothergoose #Santaclausiscomintotown
