These are so amazing.
They are generational spanning works of true art. Some have always relegated children's book/animation art to that of no merit. Your posts on the Animation Archive truly blow that type of attitude out of the water. I would love to see more of this and hope that people continue to contribute their collections so the new content never ceases.
Sincerely,

A-HAA!
This is the main reason i'm creating an account here.
Ahh thanks.
Thanks so much for sharing these! If you could have Easton Press or The Folio Society reprint these, you'd have a lot of us buying them.
I read Tenggren illustrated books as a kid and marveled over the art, the richness of color and form. Compared with today's ultra-simplified content and computer generated wireframes and rendering, the absence of character is astonishing. The dumbing down began with Disney Studios and continues to this day.
