"Never short of anecdotes about Walt Disney and the other early artists (or the jokes they played on each other), the authors present a funny, charming, and authoritative story of just how Disney elevated animation from jumpy stick figures acting out gags to genuine works of art that move - and, furthermore, move their audiences. In this unique volume, the authors not only fully explain Disney humor as no one else could but they lavishly illustrate - with original drawings preserved in the Archives! - the various kinds of sight gags that were used in creating the greatest body of work in world animation. This is the book that finally reveals the true key to Disney humor." - from dust jacket. Usual library markings. Above-average wear and soiling. Hinges taped. Not pretty but a worthy reading copy..
