Friz Freleng Books

It's too bad this book is out of print, especially since Friz Freleng was in the Warner Brothers studio from 1930 to about 1966. In addition, he created the Pink Panther and many other cartoons with David DePatie (late 1960's to early 1970's) and worked with Walt Disney and MGM in the early days (1920's). That's no small resume, considering he'd been in the cartoon business for nearly 60 of his 89 years. So to Donovan Publishing, it's time for a reprint (especially since there are books about Tex Avery and Chuck Jones still in print)!

This book captures the history behind Bugs Bunny and all of the other Warner Bros. characters. It provides interesting information on how and why these horrorshow cartoons were made. A few in-depth sections may bore the average reader, but for the most part, the book is filled with intersting tales of car wax.
