Synopsis

The history of Rankin/Bass Productions (originally known as Videocraft International, Inc.) spans more than thirty years and includes dozens of fondly-remembered animated television specials, feature films, and television series. With the assistance of Arthur Rankin, Jr., author Rick Goldschmidt has assembled this complete visual history of the animated projects of Rankin/Bass.
Benefiting from generous access to the studio's archives, the author has assembled an array of production stills, concept artwork, storyboards, advertising materials and behind-the-scenes photographs that document every single production that issued from Rankin/Bass over the years, including projects that were never released. Dozens of interviews with animators, composers, voice-actors, and artists augment the extensive commentary contributed by Arthur Rankin, Jr.
