Chuck Amuck by Chuck Jones 1990 1st Edition 3rd Print Hardcover Book with Jacket
Biography by the award-winning Looney Tunes creator of Buggs Bunny, Elmer Fudd, Coyote and Road Runner, Pepe Le Pew, Marvin the Martian, and Michigan J. Frog, to name a few.
Winner of three Academy Awards and numerous other prizes for his animated films, Chuck Jones is the director of scores of famous Warner Bros. cartoons and the creator of such memorable characters as the Road Runner, Wile E. Coyote, Pepé Le Pew, and Marvin Martian. In this beguiling memoir, Chuck Jones evokes the golden years of life at "Termite Terrace," the Warner Bros. studio in which he and his now-famous fellow animators conceived the cartoons that delighted millions of moviegoers throughout the world and entertain new generations of fans on television. Not a mere history, Chuck Amuck captures the antic spirit that created classic cartoons-such as Duck Dodgers in the 241/2 Century, One Froggy Evening, Duck Amuck, and What's Opera, Doc? - with some of the wittiest insights into the art of comedy since Mark Twain.
Very Good Condition with no structural damage. No tears, creases, missing pages or dings. The jacket spine is sun-faded. The remains of a price sticker are on the front endpapaer. No other issues.
Note: The book features a subtle easter egg in the form of doubling as a Coyote and Roadrunner animated flip book. The coyote chases the roadrunner on the top margins of the pages only to fall off the cliff of the top margin down the right margin.
