Early cartoon influences: “Lonesome Ghosts”
June 10th, 2008
When I was a kid, one of my earliest animation related memories was of the Disney cartoon “Lonesome Ghosts”. Our family doctor had a toy called the Fisher Price Cartoon Viewer, a toy which had interchangeable cartridges which were sections of cartoons. One of my favorites was “Lonesome Ghosts”.
I used to watch the section with Mickey in the flood and Goofy with the dresser over and over again, forward and backward. It was a great way to see the overlapping action of how things moved and followed the main movement of the characters. I didn’t know this at the time. I was just watching a cartoon.
What are some of your early cartoon influences?
