1. ‘Peace On Earth’ Is 75 Years Old—And More Relevant Than Ever

We rarely see "Peace On Earth" alongside more traditionally revered holiday standards like "A Charlie Brown Christmas" or "How the Grinch Stole Christmas"�but we really should.

2. ‘To Spring’ Is The Weirdest Cartoon Ever Made About Springtime

Among the most frustrating aspects of spring—if you don't live in southern California—is the fluctuating weather. One moment it's T-shirt weather, the next, heavy overcoat. The 1936 MGM cartoon "To Spring" explains the scientific reason for why this occurs: the elves who live underground aren't working hard enough.

3. Bosko and Honey postcard

We interrupt this animation blog with a discovery of tremendous historical signifigance. Or at least, I think so. Warner Bros. cartoon art super-collector Eric Calande just found this postcard (from the 1950s?) depicting Harman & Ising Bosko and Honey dolls which we’ve never seen before. It’s known Harman and Ising continued to license Bosko (in comic books and coloring books, and home movies) into the 1950s. But postcards? With plush dolls? Anyone with further information on what this “series” is part of, please let us know.

In the meantime, cool image, huh?

4. Buy The Lost Love Letters of Hugh Harman

Hugh Harman

Dozens of love letters belonging to director and animator Hugh Harman have turned up on eBay. For those who are unfamiliar with the name, Hugh Harman was a legendary figure in animation history. The starting bid for the letters is $2,000 which I think is a bit overpriced considering they’re from the 1940s after Harman had already made his biggest contributions to cartoons. I’d also assume the likelihood of new animation history revelations to be low. However, it’s an interesting find for the animation buff who likes a little romance on the side.

(Thanks, “Dave and Frank”)
