The Hanna-Barbera Treasury Hardcover – January 1, 2007

If you are at all interested in animation and classic tv cartoons this is a great book. It mostly focuses on the popular hb cartoons tho so if you are looking for obscure gems they aren't here. It has some good information as well but as with any art book most of the information is in the pictures. There's things like model sheets, pencil tests and even photos of vintage toys and other merchandise. Personally this seems to get me more info the creation process which is what any good book on animation should do. I find alot of modern cartoon art to be boring but this book is really interesting

The media could not be loaded.

This is really a good book. It's informative, it's fun to look at, and there are neat little surprises here and there. What I really loved about this book was some of the old story boards, character sketches, and production materials. Most HB books have screen shots from the cartoons. There was only one thing I didn't like about it, and it's really just me being picky. The section on "Frankenstein Jr. & The Impossibles." The Impossibles is one of my favorite HB cartoons, and the lack of "fun stuff" (storyboards, character sketches, etc.) really got to me. It was mostly Frankenstein Jr. "fun stuff" and two pics of the Impossibles at most.But like I said, that's just me being nitpicky. Other than my personal preference, this was an interesting book.

I waited anxiously for this book to arrive because I am a lifelong fan of so many of these characters. I remember the very early days watching Huckleberry Hound and later The Flintstones.There is no way to remember my childhood without the characters that live inside this book. The warm memories and the fantasatic format make this a work of love to be cherished forever!I became an artist because of Hanna Barbera if you are a fan you want this book! All the little surprises tucked inside make it a joy with every viewing. Thankfully Boomerang continues to showcase these childhood heroes and I am hoping to see Warner Brothers to give these cartoons the respect they deserve by making new cartoons starring them. Until then I will be inside this book as often as I can.

My Hanna Barbera Treasury arrived in a timely fashion. It came packed in premium packaging with protective padding. All pages and inserts intact. No marks, like new. This is a colorful very entertaining book. I feel the same pleasure that I felt as a child watching the cartoons when I look at this book.Very satisfied toonhead.

This book has to be the greatest book I have ever purchased.It not only covers all the different kinds of Hanna Barbera characters,but it has all kinds of extra treasures.I would highy recommend.Roger

If Your A Fan Get This Book. It Includes So Many Reproduction Of Souveniers At The Time Its Worth It For That Alone. Simply A Amazing Book.

I was hoping for more artwork on the most popular shows, instead they littered the book with a bunch of stuff taped/glued to the pages.
