Cartoon Carnival 1 in retrospect


After all these years I've finally put on my first public 16mm screening of these ancient cartoons. The turnout wasn't as big as I'm hoping for in the future, but large enough to make a very nice start to the series, and I think the audience really enjoyed the varied presentation.

Great selection! I'm proud that another historian is there to keep the flame going! But hopefully not near any Nitrate!
Best of luck in your future shows!

Congrats on your first screening, Tom! Hopefully the carnival makes it out to LA one day. Hurray for keeping these films alive!
