Description
Red Hot Riding Hood Concept Drawings by Preston
Blair Group of 4 (MGM, 1943). The character of Red Hot and her
sensuous song and dance numbers that so aroused poor Woolfie are
the stuff of Animation Legend. She was designed and animated by
Preston Blair (1908 - 1995), and first seen in this Tex
Avery-directed cartoon short, which was released to theaters on
5/8/43. Red was no doubt a welcome distraction from home-front
World War II worries, and reportedly a big favorite with
servicemen. Here is a set of original 12 field 3-peghole early
concept drawings of Red Hot from the hand of Mr. Blair. In the
first, we see Red as she demurely sits at Wolf's table, resisting
his advances. This is a beautiful sketch, done in graphite and red
pencil, with an overall image size of 3" x 3.25". Next is a
full-figure field of view graphite drawing of Red with arms wide
open; figure size is 4" with two framing boxes, for an overall
image size of 6.5" x 5". This drawing has the number 56 written in
the lower right corner. Next is a sketch of Red with one hand on
her hip, the other behind her neck in a very sexy pose that
measures 5" tall. There are two more sketches of Red rendered
outside the field of view box. Overall image size is approximately
7" x 7.75". The final drawing is a full-figure sketch of a similar
pose, with one arm up and the other by her hip; figure size is
6.5". A field of view box is drawn around her, and there are a few
other doodles (including a faint, partially erased version) around
this 6" x 4.5" box. These last two 12 field drawings have the main
image partially traced on the backside as well. This is a
fascinating look at one of animation's most desirable characters as
she comes to life, from a true master of the art form, Preston
Blair. Overall condition is Very Good, with minor handling wear.
