      Just 3 minor ones but they are signed. Not seriographs or cels but the pen and watercolor originals. They were for sale at a Madison Ave gallery about 20years ago. The whole series. I couldn't afford any of the major ones, although looking back I really should have found a way, but I have these and I treasure them.

      I love cartoons.

          My favorite is Rudolph. (Although I love the Grinch, too, of course.)

          Did you see they just found the original Rudolph and the original Santa from the Rankin-Bass Rudolph? They were going to toss them after the show was made, and one of the secretaries took them home, and the kids in her family played with them for about 40 years.

          Now they've been restored and they're making appearances. One stop is going to be in Chicago this weekend...I was trying to convince my sister that she should go out and see them!

            My DD has gotten very into storyboarding, and cartoons. She's an Illustration major, but she's switching into cartooning/storyboarding, next semester.

            My favorite Xmas movie is Scrooge, with Alister Sims. I watch it every year, usually late on Christmas Eve.

            If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.

            BTW, I'm still keeping track of how many times you annoy me.

                I like the bit with the X-ray machine over his chest, showing that his heart is three sizes too small.

                Is it three sizes?

                  Is that the Grinch version with Boris Karloff? That is a classic.

                    Yes, that's the one. Not the Jim Carrey version.

                      everything is on You Tube....

                      My favorite christmas movie is "It's a Wonderful Life". I sob every single time, every year. DH really never can figure out why I need to sit and watch that one each year with a box of tissues at my side.

                            Lawren,

                            My son could relate well to your experience. In the summer when he was 4, our library had two VCR tapes of the Dr Suess' The Grinch Who Stole Christmas. For a month when we would we return one copy, he would insist on checking out the other copy. Guess what he received for Christmas that year!
