Ground Hog - Character Design
The 1930 Silly Symphony "Winter," CS-14, was laid out in September 15 to 27, animated September 16 to October 10, with backgrounds by the gentlemen in my previous post. It was delivered 10/22/30.
A central character in the film is the ground hog, animated first by Jack King, then dancing by Tom Palmer.
Here is a drawing I aquired a year ago: it was among the amazing documents that the film's director Burt Gillett gave to "little Jeannie" when he moved to New York back in 1934...
A note about the coloring of drawings of this period: it was the convention to paint areas indicated in blue pencil with #1 Grey, in red pencil with #2 Grey, unless a number was written in the red color...

That drawing is a treasure. Most of my favorite animation art comes from that period.
Again, great drawings! I could not agree more with Mike. Are there any drawings of the first Ugly Duckling?
Ross, I don't have anything from that first Ugly Duckling. (Sadly, Mike isn't around anymore to spring surprises on us. After we lost him, blog posting wasn't as fun...)
