Trip To Carlo Vinci's House
Steve Worth, Amir Avni and I went to visit Carlo Vinci's family last weekend. That's Carlo's wife Margaret above and her son Ron and grandson John. Amir is smiling to left of her.
There's Ron, his lovely wife Scarlett and son John.
We got to see lots of great artwork and Margaret showed us her love letters from Carlo from the late 1930s. On Terrytoons stationery!
That's a self portrait of Carlo above. I'll tell you more in a bit...
Steve is going to post a bunch of Carlo's love letters - with drawings of Terrytoons characters at the archive soon. So keep your eyes peeled.
