Having just finished reading Adrienne Tytla's huge book about her late husband, Disney's Giant, a friend of mine found out that the first printing of the first edition of The Illusion of Life seems to contain a picture printed upside down. Would anyone have this version of the book? This friend is trying to find out on which page the mistake happened and I promised to try and help.

My version says First edition, 5th printing; if that qualifies, let me know how I can help. Great blog!

That's the same as mine. It does not qualify unfortunately. Only the first edition first printing contains the mistake.

Thanks for the nice comments about the blog, it motivates me to keep going :-)

As far as I remember, it is the sketch of the long shot of the queen from Snow White in front of the mirror. Also the three pages of action analysis of the walking and running dogs by Frank were not in the right order. (Cannot check this, as I do not have the book with me right now).

Thanks Hans. That will defintely help my friend. Glad you discovered the blog. (I love yours!)
