Launched by Walt Disney in 1929 as a 'musical novelty' series to complement his recent success with Mickey Mouse, the Silly Symphonies series soon became much more. This line of delightfully innovative, animated cartoons ran for ten years and produced such classics as Three Little Pigs, The Tortoise and the Hare, Music Land and The Old Mill. This richly illustrated volume is a complete history of the Silly Symphonies series, including detailed entries for all the Symphonies along with a lengthy critical analysis and production history of the series.
