An Undated (probably 1980s) Studio Work Manual Xerox Copy (measures 8 1/2" x 11" [22 x 28 cm]; 86 pages) (Learn More) Fleischer Studios was an animation studio in New York, founded in 1921 as Inkwell Studios by Max & Dave Fleischer.The Fleischer Bros were legends and pioneers in animated films. They made the very first sound cartoon in 1924, beating Walt Disney by several years. They had great success with their Out of the Inkwell cartoons, Popeye, Betty Boop, and much more, including the Superman cartoons, widely regarded as the finest cartoons ever made! But after Walt Disney made Snow White, the Fleischers made Gulliver's Travels, which did not do well at the box office, and their next major project, Mr. Bug Goes To Town, had the bad fortune to be released two days before the attack on Pearl Harbor, and it also did poorly. At this same time, the Fleischer brothers had a major falling out, and in 1942, they split completely. After they made the last of their Superman cartoons in 1942, Paramount ceased control of their studio. Each of the brothers made a few more cartoons, but their careers were essentially over. Important Added Info: Note that someone (circa 1980s) made a xerox copy of this Fleischer Studios work manual, which was compiled (likely in the 1930s) by Izzy Sparber and Seymour Kneitel "to familiarize Animators and their Assistants with the technical requirements necessary to the production of Animated Cartoons". We wonder if any original examples of this manual survive. If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Condition: very good. The pages of the manual are xeroxed and collated, but are not attached to each other. Learn More about condition grades
