Gulliver's Travels HD transfer

For a short period of time, you can order a special Gulliver's Travels set from Thunderbean Animation (purveyors of sets seen more in the '43 blog, like the great Private Snafu set).

The new transfer of a 35mm IB Technicolor print is to be sent on DVD, with an HD file on another disc (the goal being to fund the transfer itself, so keep in mind the discs won't be sent out immediately, but necessarily entail lag time to create the transfer and then the disc; think of it as a little more like Kickstarter than like Best Buy). It should be well worth the money ($14 plus shipping).

More Gulliver cels

A group of Gulliver Travels cels that showed up on eBay last month. The seller said he had bought them himself on eBay years earlier.

Gulliver Valentine's Day Cards

Cartoon Brew pointed out some Gulliver's Travels Valentine's Day cards on eBay. I thought I had posted a couple of these, but a quick search didn't turn them up on the blog they're probably just sitting in a folder on my computer), so here they are.

Title Cards of 1939 in Review

As with yesterday's post, I present to you a compilation of all the title cards, as seen on this blog (I think). These each last for a second, tho, so you can see them much more clearly than any given image in yesterday's video, wherein each image lasted for about 1/10th of a second.

A quick visual review of 1939

Here for your perusal I present screen caps of all the US theatrical shorts as they have appeared on this blog. I tried to remove all the other things, but I notice that I at the very least missed clearing out the Mickey Mouse Nabisco short. Think of it as A Clockwork Orange meets animation history. It'll be real horrorshow.

Gulliver's Travels original art

There is a very large amount of art from Gulliver's Travels out there. Much of it is model art, but there is quite a lot of production art as well. Of course, there's much Snow White production art out there too; perhaps the studios made more of a point of pimping their features as art.

With Gulliver, this really makes the colors of the art look great, compared to the faded mess the public domain prints we normally see are. I'm sure I have a bit more images than what I've put up, as the pathetic drawing I own isn't currently represented.

You can presently find some of this art for sale at
