Description

This exact book
was used by Charles Shows in the production of the 1950's TV series
The Adventures of TinTin
. Throughout the book are notes on what to use in the TV episodes called
Objective Moon 1 and 2
airing in France in 1959. Most all of Charles other work was right her in the US. Read below for just a small outline of his amazing work.
Needless to say this is a 1st edition and I'm fairly sure its a 1st printing based on its use in the 1959 TV series and being the final title on the back cover.
Who is Charles Shows?
Charles Woodrow Shows
was mostly an American television writer, but also producer, and composer. What connection do
Bozo the Clown, Gort the Robot from The Day The Earth Stood Still
, and
Los Angeles television station KTLA
have with a trilogy of Disney space shows? Charles Shows. In the book Charles Shows wrote,
Walt: Backstage Adventures with Walt Disney (1980)
, he writes, Walt was impressed with his writing on the popular Time for Beany puppet program and thought Shows was better than any of the writers Walt had currently working on his staff so he personally hired him. According to Shows, he was the only one with the courage during a story meeting on director Jack Kinney’s proposal for a possible Tomorrowland segment to speak up and suggest that Walt should go in a different direction.
