Animations 1950's - 1970's

Looney Tunes

Looney Tunes is a Warner Bros. animated cartoon series. It preceded the Merrie Melodies series and was Warner Bros.' first animated theatrical series. The series features some of the most well-known and popular cartoon characters in history, including Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Porky Pig, and Tweety Bird. Many of the characters have made cameo appearances in television shows, films and advertisements. Also all of the characters had the same man doing all of the voice overs, and he was called Mel Blanc.

Hanna Barbera

Hanna-Barbera Productions was an American animation studio that dominated North American television animation for nearly three decades in the mid-to-late 20th century. The company was originally formed in 1957 by former Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer animation directors William Hanna and Joseph Barbera and live-action director George Sidney in partnership with Columbia Pictures' Screen Gems television division

Oliver Postgate

Oliver Postgate (12 April 1925 – 8 December 2008) was an English animator, puppeteer and writer. He was the creator and writer of some of Britain's most popular children's television programs. Pingwings, Pogles' Wood, Noggin the Nog, Ivor the Engine, Clangers and Bagpuss, were all made by Smallfilms, the company he set up with Peter Firmin, and were shown on the BBC between the 1950s and the 1980s.

Magic Roundabout

The magic roundabout was originally a french children's television program that was created in 1963 by Serge Danot. The BBC produced a version of the series using the original stop motion animation footage with new English-language scripts, written and performed by Eric Thompson, that had no relation to the original storylines. This version, broadcast from 18 October 1965 to 25 January 1977, was a great success and attained cult status, being watched by adults for its dry humour as much as by the children for whom it was intended.
