About this Item

8 3/4" x 11 5/16", 432 pp. Enormous, well-illustrated (6,800 illustrations!) compendium of animation art up to the year 1953. " The art illustrated was offered at auction, which means that it is in the marketplace, an important fact for collectors. In addition to the 6,800 illustrated pieces, there is a listing of sales for several thousand additional pieces for which illustrations were unavailable. The book contains prices paid for the pieces at auction, making it a wonderful tool for assigning value. Mr. Lotman also shares his expansive knowledge of the art and the collecting. The animation process is explained in detail and important information for collectors is shared. This is easily the most comprehensive heavily illustrated view of animation art ever produced. It is a must have for every collector." - publisher. A Near Fine (NF) copy with only a bit of bumping to the spine ends. Dustjacket is about Near Fine as well, with a bit of curling and wear at the paper edges; otherwise Fine. A very nice copy of this scarce reference on animation art. Seller Inventory # 01572x
