I gotta relocate to Los Angeles so I can go to all these events!

I love the old art-deco cartoons, unfortunatly however I cannot come to this event. Would it be possible to get a list of the films that were screened or discussed after the event?

I echo that sentiment! It sounds like a fascinating evening with some wonderful cartoons. I wish I could justify going!

Larry, I know exactly how you feel! (Jerry, those are fantastic screen grabs!)
Fortunately, I live in Cincinnati, and when I’m jonesin for some amazing art deco, I can take the kids here:

No place like it on earth.

That image from the left looks like a 1930’s version of Cinderella’s castle! :-)

The Silly Symphony “Musicland” is another prime Art Deco example.

Hey Jerry,
Remember doing something similar to this for our Teenage Robot ASIFA event a few years back? I know we screened Miss Glory and Mannequins, too bad we didn’t have time for All’s Fair, it’s always been one of my favorites. I recall also discussing the Little King shorts and Donald’s Modern Inventions (http://www.paleofuture.com/2007/02/donald-ducks-modern-inventions-1937.html) as other possible contenders. I’ll be very excited to attend this event.

I believe this event is co-sponsored by the Art Deco Society of Los Angeles (http://www.adsla.org/), not the Art Deco Society of California (http://artdecosociety.org/). I’ve seen David’s presentations before, and this will be an event not to be missed!

Will they be from 35mm nitrate negatives w/ orginial titles?

Who would want to see a huge UM&M shield on a big screen anyways?? That is illogicial, because UM&M was a TV distrubutor!

And I do not want them to be from a DVD or dumb ol’ raw 16mm dupes.

By the way, Jerry, where did you get this bright orginial print?
