Tony Benedict and Joe Barbera

Animation artist Tony Benedict (no relation to Ed) has a personal website that offers a mishmash of photos, gag drawings and ephemera from his early animation career at Disney, UPA and Hanna-Barbera. Worth a quick look.

(Thanks, Jason Groh)

The “Sandy” that Tony is referring to on several pages is Dalton Sandifer. The other ID’s should be fairly obvious.

Tony looked like the James Dean of Disney back then!

No kidding. I bet he dipped his pen in the ink and paint department plenty of times.

Wow! That was really cool to see so many personal gag drawings from HB’s earlier days and the antics behind it all. I think I would have preferred to see them sans digital comments though. Kinda breaks the thought that we’re looking at vintage artwork. Still cool though!

Worth a *quick* look? That’s much too tepid a review! I found it to be a fascinating behind-the-scenes glimpse at the world of early TV animation.

You are quite right, Mike. The captions are toast. Thanks for the tip. Tony.
