Medium is the Massage
- Here’s a good example of the worst Felix the Cat ever drawn. Joe Oriolo takes credit for illustrating this book which was released at the time that Oriolo had the tv series of Felix cartoons. Felix The Cat and His Magic Bag of Tricks. As a matter of fact, I can’t believe that Oriolo did this, himself. He had to have farmed it out to someone else on the cheap. I know for a fact that he could draw better than this.
Not only are the drawings different from picture to picture, but the flipbook in the corners of the pages doesn’t work at all. However, I thought I’d still share it with you.

I think you may’ve accidentally substituted an image of page 3 for page 10…

I’ve corrected it, thanks for catching the problem.

also- in the animation did you expose these in numeric order, 2-3-4-5-6 etc, or did you do first the odds then the evens, like 3,5,7,9,11,13,15,17,19,21, 2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16,18,20?
actually I just now tried it a third way myself,just to try to make sense of it- i did the odds forwards from 1 to 21 then the evens backwards, from 20 to 2, as if i were flipping through the pages from bottom to top, first the left side then the right, and that seems to make it flow a bit smoother, especially after registering the images based on the position of the ball…
