I found this on Ebay some time ago, and, frankly, was a little daunted by scanning in 20 pages for a blog entry.
Enter my new self-feeding double-sided scanner, and voila!
No idea how old this is, but it’s a fun look.
Enjoy!
Fun!
BTW, here’s a little post on how I draw cartoons.
This is a really interesting find. I assume that this is the whole thing and there are no credits, indicia, copyright date? Googling around, I see that one antique seller is offer this booklet for $47.00 and saying it's from the 1950s, but it looks earlier to me.

Mmm … #1 Guarana drink in USA! Maybe it's time for an Andertoons Guarana!!!
I have an old Walter Foster animation book with most of that same 'how to' artwork. Unfortunately, couldn't find any indication as to the original artist. The style has the look from the 40's to very early 50's. Similar to the early Porky Pig cartoons.
