FiIm producer Amadee J. Van Beuren partnered with Iegendary animator Paul Terry in 1920 to create their Aesop's FabIes cartoons. ln 1929, Terry quit to go on his own, and the Van Beuren Studio was born. The twenty-one rare cartoons in this colIection were produced by Van Beuren between 1929 and 1933. With John Foster heading animation and bandIeader Gene Rodemich handIing sound recording and synchronization, the studio churned out scores of classic Aesop's Fables cartoons untiI 1936, when they couId no Ionger compete with industry giant, Disney, for distribution.
These 21 shorts are loaded with the cIassic characters and animals that stiIl infIuence cartoonists today. And in almost every episode, you can guarantee that a corn cob, a skeIeton or an exotic creature wiII morph into keyboards in time for a jazzy piano soIo!
