Inside UPA is a 64-page, unprecendented look into legendary UPA Pictures. Packed with over fifty photos, most of which have not been seen in decades, the book offers a rare glimpse into what it was like to work at the mid-century's greatest design-oriented animation studio. Inside UPA is designed and written by historian Amid Amidi, whose recent Cartoon Style and Design in the Fifties Animation won the prestigious Theatre Library Association Award for best film or television book of 2006. Like the work of UPA, Inside UPA is a bit of an experiment. It is an animation book that treats artists like the stars they are, and allows them to be appreciated like never before.
