A huge hardcover book, filled with full page representations form the animators drawing board, showing you the process of creating visual sight gags in animation. Disney animators Frank Thomas & Ollie Johnston created the animators bible with their first book, "The Illusion of Life". It was to be their best of several books, and Sight Gags is next in line. Frank & Ollie were heroes of the the golden age of animation, and the part they played as part of the team of Walt's top animators, "the Nine Old Men" as they were known.

It is THE book on the subject of 'sight-gags'. (Remember to also get Frank & Ollie's Greatest Disney Villains and The Making of Bambi books! - You already have The Illusion of Life, of course!)
