    Wondeful! Ray Pointer does it again..
  

*by J***N on Reviewed in the United States on February 14, 2017*

I didn't anticipate how large it was going to be though, but it was well packed with good information and rare photos that I've never seen before (plus photos we've seen many times in other animation books). Ray has always been one of my favorite historians and this book goes for a more indept look at the rise and fall of our favorite brothers of animation (including just HOW they fell...). The foreword by the one and only Jerry Beck is worth picking up the book alone. There is a couple of easy typos (Toby the Pup is referred to as Roby the Pup on the caption of the photo in one chapter and Grim Natwick's name is misspelled at one point in the same paragraph), but it's nothing too distracting. I would love to see more items like this in the future from Inkwell Images (they haven't done that much books, but there is a lot of potential here with a large library of history floating around)..

    A must read for cartoon lovers!
  

*by K***Y on Reviewed in the United States on September 1, 2019*

Growing up, Popeye and Betty Boop were staples of my morning routines.  As I grew older, Saturday morning cartoons were the highlight of my week.I recently reconnected with Ray and he directed me to his book about Max Fleischer.  What a delightful read!  The book gave me a deeper understanding of the art of creating those wonderful Betty Boop and Popeye cartoons.  And yes, Disney, is better known for his cartoons, but Fleischer pushed the cartoon industry forward and was the glue that held it together.I am an avid read and was really taken in by the story of Max Fleischer’s life.  Ray is not only a talented animator, but a very talented writer.  His Knowledge of Fleischer’s life and the imagination flowing through his cartoons made for a very enjoyable read.  The book gave me greater insight into the technologies Fleischer developed that went into creating the cartoons that I loved so much as a child.This book is well worth reading for all cartoon lovers and “students” of moving pictures in the cartoon format.

    Excellent Book
  

*by M***Y on Reviewed in the United States on February 26, 2017*

This book is very well written, with lots of detail that is absolutely fascinating in its thoroughness of presentation and meaningful comparisons to other related events.  Ray Pointer has spent a lot of time and effort over 40 years conducting many personal interviews, with Max Fleischer himself and several members of Max’s family, and a host of animators and workers at the various incarnations of the Fleischer studios, as well as digging up every conceivable document relating to Max Fleischer’s life and events in the Fleischer studios, which began well before most of the other New York animation studios, and many years before Disney.  This has been used to good advantage in Pointer’s book, giving Max Fleischer’s early struggles, setbacks and triumphs a very complete and compelling feeling of “you are there”.  I highly recommend this book!
