Love these cartoon background paintings for THE FLINTSTONES and YOGI BEAR! There is so much appeal to the early HANNA-BARBERA TV cartoons...from the colorful character designs to the beautiful backgrounds! I believe these particular backgrounds were painted by ART LOZZI and FERNANDO MONTEALEGRE. Click on each image for a larger view of Hanna-Barbera candy!
Here's the October 1967 edition of THE HANNA-BARBERA EXPOSURE SHEET, the studio's newsletter. I've got a few more of these to post, so keep checking back. It's neat to see photos of TED CASSIDY and the HUCK FINN cast reading the very first edition of THE EXPOSURE SHEET on page one. I posted that edition back on June 13, 2008. It's interesting to see that HANNA-BARBERA background painter, ART LOZZI, designed interiors for three Hilton Hotels in Europe...and the animated feature, A MAN CALLED FLINTSTONE (the film was actually titled THE MAN CALLED FLINTSTONE), won two awards!
