Happy Thanksgiving to all of our readers. Here’s a little turkey day treat - Tex Avery’s Jerky Turkey. For model sheets and animation drawings from the film, head on over to Kevin Langley’s blog.

Did anyone notice the pilgrim jumping into the tub is an example from Preston’s animation book?

The artwork was changed in later editions, but you can see the original example here:

It’s great to see it in context.
