Rudolph Restored

12/22/2014

Thanks to Jerry Beck for this great post on Animation Scoop about the recent Library of Congress release of a newly restored print of "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer." This Christmas classic, directed by Max Fleischer, was produced by the Jam Handy Organization in 1948 as a promotional film for Montgomery Ward department stores. Max worked on a number of films for the Jam Handy Organization in the years after he left Fleischer Studios - but this is certainly the best remembered.

We're thrilled to announce the launch of our latest exhibit: A Very Fleischer Christmas!

Christmas was a special time at Fleischer Studios. The joy of the season offered studio artists the perfect opportunity to exercise their special brand of zaniness for their own - and each other's - enjoyment. 

Now, thanks to this exhibit, we can share the joy and zaniness of having A Very Fleischer Christmas with all of you!

Not only does this exhibit include images from the Fleischer Family Collection of historic, hand drawn Holiday Cards by some of our greatest animators; it even includes actual footage from the Studio's 1935 Holiday Party! 

As if all that was't enough, the exhibit also includes a collection of 6 ready-to-download Holiday Cards that were specially created for the launch of this exhibit!

Don't miss this very special exhibit celebrating this most special time of year!

Fleischer artist, Jean Karaty, passes away at 97

It is with sadness that we share this story from the Miami Herald reporting the passing of Jean Karaty, who worked as an artist for Fleischer Studios during its Miami-based years. She passed away on Thanksgiving morning. 

Mrs. Karaty was discovered at her mother’s dress shop in Miami Beach "by an employee who noticed her drawings of flowers, animals and cartoon characters and encouraged her to visit the studio." In a 2003 piece in the Miami Herald she recalled going to the theater to watch the cartoons before the movie: “You’d say, ‘I did that! I worked on that!’ and the people around us would say ‘Shh!’ They thought we were just a bunch of rowdies.”

We send our sympathies to her family and encourage you to check out the Herald's lovely tribute HERE.
