Chuck Jones "Chuck Redux" Signed 1st Edition Book 1996 Unread Condition

Description: I purchased this book from the Chuck Jones Gallery in 1996. It is first edition, first printing. I was told that Chuck Jones signed his name in pencil on books because it was more difficult to forge. As you see, on other signed Chuck Redux books sold here, his signature is in pencil. This has been Brodarted by me since purchase. It is in as new condition, never read. It's difficult to get good photos with a Brodart, so you see reflections..(In the 1990s, I collected many animation books, especially purchasing books from several of Disney's "Nine Old Men" when they were still making appearances and signing) I'm no longer collecting animation art and books. From Publishers Weekly re: Chuck Redux: {Chuck Jones was} ...an animator and a director of animated features for more than 60 years and has created such cartoon figures as Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Elmer Fudd, Wile E. Coyote and Pepe le Pew. He also worked with Dr. Seuss on TV versions of How the Grinch Stole Christmas and Horton Hears a Who, in the course of a career during which he made more than 250 films and won three Oscars. Jones's advice here on how to draw and, more specifically, how to draw animals engaging in various activities will prove valuable to aspiring artists; and his portraits of people he has known--from his captivating Uncle Lynn with his surrealistic view of the world to the monsters who ran the Warner Brothers animation department in the 1930s and '40s--are memorable. The book also includes sidebars with quotes, some by Jones himself and others by writers from Thurber to Emerson..." Buyer pays $13 to ship USPS Priority Mail domestically. Thanks!
