Hard to believe, but Sylvester & Tweety---hysterical cat and cool bird, scoundrel of a predator and ever elusive prey---are more than 50 years old. Yes, America’s favorite Saturday morning duo, matinee-film idols of several earlier generations of children, has been with us that long---leading the Warner Bros. parade of belovedly manic ‘toons into our collective hearts. This book is a splendidly illustrated biography of Sylvester & Tweety’s first half-century. It shows us their birth in early film guises and the hilarious variations on the chase theme that have kept audiences on edge for years, and includes more than 300 stop-motion scenes via original production art and frame enlargements. Special sidebars explain how Warner Bros. cartoons were animated, highlighting every phase of the process.
