Does anybody remember the Max Fletcher (sp?) cartoons of Popeye. They were fun, and I still marvel at how meticulous the artwork was done. The details, even in the background, was so fine and sharp that you could see individual leaves in the trees, bricks in the buildings, and stones and ruts in the roads. The perspective gave a real sense of depth. As scenes are panned, images move as they would in real life. As I kid, I first saw them in the 50's, but I know they are older than that. Good stuff.
