I finally had a chance to dig into the recent Chronicle Books release, The Art of Toy Story – 100 Collectible Postcards. As the title suggests, there are 100 gorgeous postcards included. You’ll find various sketches, sculptures, storyboards, color scripts, etc from the Toy Story and Toy Story 2 (plus a few bonus postcards for Toy Story 3!). Many of these can also be found in the Art of Toy Story, but since there wasn’t an art book for Toy Story 2, some of these are being seen here for the first time.
Your favorite Pixarians are featured here including Andrew Stanton, Pete Docter, Joe Ranft, Jeff Pidgeon, Ralph Eggleston, Bob Pauley, Bill Cone, Andy Dreyfus, Jim Capobianco, Jim Pearson, Randy Berrett, Floyd Norman, Dan Lee, Jill Culton, Bud Luckey, Steve Johnson, Bud Thon, Dan Haskett, Matthew Luhn, Nat McLaughlin, Rob Gibbs, Dan Jeup, Nilo Rodis, Randy Berrett, Kelly Asbury and Norm Decarlo. There’s also contributions from artists who have left the studio for other endeavors like Chris Sanders (Lilo & Stich) and Ash Brannon (Surf’s Up).
It comes housed in a very nice box (a piece of art in itself) and is really a bargain for under $13. What are you waiting for? Get yours now from Amazon.com or other retailers such as Barnes & Noble or Borders.
A few of my favorites are included below from the likes of Andrew Stanton, Pete Docter, Joe Ranft/Jeff Pidgeon, Ralph Eggleson, Bob Pauley, Jim Capobianco and Bill Cone. Enjoy!
