At the age of 21, Gene Deitch discovered The Record Changer, a jazz fan magazine. Every jazz swinger in the '40s was called a "cat," so Gene Deitch created a cartoon feature titled "The Cat," which quickly became a fixture of the magazine. He also started drawing the covers, which graced almost every issue from 1945 to 1951. Deitch's stylistically virtuoso images exquisitely embodied the essence of the 1950s hipster, and was a visual paean to the joy of collecting records and appreciating jazz. The Cat on a Hot Thin Groove collects all of Deitch's Record Changer work in one gorgeous, coffee-table art book, with commentary and reminiscences by Deitch himself.

Book Description paperback. Condition: Neu. Neu -Gene, eigentlich Eugene, Merril Deitch (geb. 1924) schuf in den 1950er Jahren humorvolle, äußerst treffende Cartoons für das amerikanische Jazz-Magazin »The Record Changer«. Die Freude am Sammeln von Schallplatten und am Hören von Jazz hat er mit großer emotionaler und bildhafter Kraft in Szene gesetzt, so dass die Zeit damals und das Lebensgefühl, ein Hipster der 1950er Jahre zu sein, wieder lebendig wird. Ein im Jahre 2003 veröffentlichtes Coffeetable-Buch präsentierte die schönsten dieser Cartoons - es war lange Jahre vergriffen. Diese neu aufgelegte Paperback-Ausgabe wird eine neue Fan-Generation begeistern!

New Trade Paperback Quantity: 1

Book Description Trade Paperback. Condition: New. On the long road to becoming an Oscar-winning animation director, Gene Deitch became an intense jazz fan. At the age of 21, he discovered The Record Changer magazine, a jazz fan magazine filled with obsessive, scholarly, and purist essays about jazz as well as listings of hard-to-find jazz albums. Every jazz swinger in the '40s was called a cat (as in 'cool cat'), so Gene Deitch created a cartoon feature for Record Changer titled 'The Cat,' which quickly became a fixture of the magazine. He also started drawing the covers, which graced almost every issue from 1945 to 1951 along with 'The Cat.' Deitch's stylistically virtuoso images exquisitely embodied the essence of the 1950s hipster, and was a visual paean to the joy of collecting records and appreciating jazz. The Cat on a Hot Thin Groove collects all of Deitch's Record Changer work in one gorgeous, coffee-table art book, with commentary and reminiscences by Deitch himself. Originally published in 2003 in hardcover and out-of-print for almost a decade, this first-ever paperback edition will delight a new generation of fans. Collects legendary animator/cartoonist's covers for a record magazine, as well as his comic starring the record collector 'The Cat.'. Seller Inventory # 131714
