LOST NOTEBOOKS HERMAN SCHULTHEIS & SECRETS OF DISNEY HC

A technician at the Disney Studio in the late 1930s, Herman Schultheis kept a covert scrapbook of special effects wizardry, capturing in photographs and text the dazzling, behind-the-scenes ingenuity of early Disney films. Later, when he mysteriously disappeared into a Guatemalan jungle, his notebook was forgotten - and with it, the stories of how these beloved animated classics were made. Part annotated facsimile of the scrapbook itself, part biography of the complicated, overly ambitious man who made it, The Lost Notebook is a goldmine for Disney and animation enthusiasts and a vivid, riveting account of early Hollywood.
