There’s a big post at the Cartoon Modern blog about Sterling Sturtevant’s character design work on the 1955 short Magoo Express. The post features lots of artwork which has been hidden away in boxes for the better part of the last fifty years.

    What an amazing find, it’s always a thrill and an education when you post these buried treasures. It’s great to see her roughs as well as the more polished model sheets. Keep this stuff coming, can’t get enough, thanks!!
