Once upon a time there was a brave British toon studio which hoped to conquer
new animated heights. It was called GB-Animation (short for Gaumont-British)
and it was set up at Moor Hall in Cookham-on-Thames in 1949, by the highly
regarded American animator David Hand, with backing from J Arthur Rank.
Hand came to Britain via Disney, having been employed on the likes of
"Snow White", "Pinnochio" and "Bambi". Under his leadership, a crew
of some 200 personnel were assembled, and production began on two
series of short animated films; nine "Animaland"cartoons and ten more
Musical Paintbox shorts.
