Max Fleischer was a pioneer in early animation and yet many of his cartoons are in desperate need of restoration.  Joining the podcast to talk about their restoration efforts in partnership with the Max Fleischer estate and Paramount pictures are Mauricio Alvarado of Rockin Pins, restorer Brandon Adams, and author and Max Fleischer expert Ray Pointer.

Along the way, we discuss the the genius of "Koko the Clown" and how it has become a pop-culture phenomenon with young people.  And we discuss the beloved fashion icon status of "Betty Boop" and her origins in early cartoons.  We also touch on "Popeye" and "Superman" and their legendary status in animation history.
