Mary Blair: the New Golden Songbook

This is something I'd love to have. The link will take you to the amazing images.

Quote:

Mary Blair is one of the most popular illustrators/color stylists among today's animation designers. This book was published in 1955, and it's a great example of Blair at the height of her powers. The full color illustrations are great, but check out the duotones and the page layouts... It's as if she can do no wrong! Her taste is impeccable. Check out the links at the bottom of this post for more beautiful images by Mary Blair.

Has anybody else noticed yet that "Ride A Cockhorse" and "I Love Little Pussy" are on the same page?

Hahahahahahahahaha, no. I was too dazzled by the Blairificness.

Not-so-subtle inuendo by the publisher, or by Blair?? Someone had a good time with that.

I almost feel inspired to try my hand at piano again. Almost.

I thought your hubby claims to be girthy?

Add a little length ... and voila cockhorse! (or is that the other way around?) I think it's similar.

An extra horse used to pull a carriage or wagon up a hill or over rough ground. (Don't ask why I knew that.)

And this will get re-released before Song of the South because "I Love Little Pussy" is not offensive. :evil:

I love little pussy her coat is so warm
and if I don't hurt her she'll do me no harm
I'll sit by the fire and give her some food
and pussy will love me because I am good.

Yes, I know it by heart.

I was reading the lyrics on the page and realized that I learned a different version as a kid....and I believe it was from a Disney LP.

I love little pussy, her coat is so warm,
And if I don't hurt her she'll do me no harm
I won't pull her tail, nor drive her away,
But pussy and I very gently will play.

Even funnier as a double entendre :)

Maybe the alternate version should look like this:

I love little pussy, her coat is so warm,
And if I don't hurt her she'll do me no harm
She'll pull on my tail, and do want I say
And pussy and I very gently will play.

I love little pussy, and dare not be blunt,
but puss has another great name...
