L'Amour The Merrier: Paramount/Famous Noveltoon, 1957: Storyboard (Pt.1 of 2)

Yes, it's true -- Louise is my sister's name.

Yes, there are a few boards missing, but no one will have a tough time following. Some of you might also have noticed that my dad cut down 3-punch peg to make his own boards. That, and the dabs of color occasionally tossed in, confirms my suspicions that the storyboards I retain are a sort of first draft; as far as I know, few cartoonists were able to get back their final boards.

Part 2 to follow shortly.

Piece of Cache

Apologies for neglecting the blog throughout this summer. It's been due to my own unreconciled stubborn dilemma about the unearthed cache: I don't know whether to be grateful or an ingrate. At some point in the future I will have to address it online and hopefully get over it, but until then here's a few items that were sent back my way:

My dad as Gen. Douglas MacArthur. Artist unknown, but I wouldn't be surprised if it were a self portrait.

Pola Negri

"Gestures" by Harpo Marx. My dad was a huge Marx Bros fan.
