He had a company which made stationery (remember when people wrote letters and sent them by mail?) and one of the products was Yogi & Boo Boo stationery for kids. The illustrations were by my Mom (my parents met at art school). <br /><br />I actually tried to use Mom's drawing of Boo Boo for today's cartoon, but it just wasn't reproducing well and I had to go with another.<br /><br />Regarding Butler and Messick, I only know what I was told when scheduling the sessions that day (eons ago). So maybe they usually got along great and were having a rough patch, or maybe their agents couldn't agree on a recording time and threw some BS my way. Or, of course, maybe they didn't like each other.<br /><br />Both were nice enough to me, and it was great fun directing these gentlemen and hearing those voices.Stilton Jarlsberghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14503164551782304564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7872824448661214592.post-20782064808043712102015-09-14T21:18:29.014-05:002015-09-14T21:18:29.014-05:00That's pretty neat that you got to be involved...That's pretty neat that you got to be involved in the Hanna-Barbera process. I grew up watching HB cartoons every Saturday. (The local amusement park also had a HB themed kids area.) I love reading details on the artists, writers, and voice actors from HB. (Along with a number of older TV shows that I grew up watching.) <br /><br />I never knew that Butler and Messick had issues, from what I've read they always presented themselves as friends. <br /><br /> Gladornhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13036666575371011307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7872824448661214592.post-25690752608267388442015-09-14T12:25:50.822-05:002015-09-14T12:25:50.822-05:00Perhaps it's just me, but this thread is getti...Perhaps it's just me, but this thread is getting un-bear-able... <br /><br />Great story, Stilt!Pete (Detroit)noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7872824448661214592.post-42995568126654273752015-09-14T09:41:17.591-05:002015-09-14T09:41:17.591-05:00@Bruce Bleu- Oh great, now Boo-Boo's lawyers c...@Bruce Bleu- Oh great, now Boo-Boo's lawyers <i>can</i> sue me.Stilton Jarlsberghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14503164551782304564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7872824448661214592.post-52517578769844519262015-09-14T09:24:00.667-05:002015-09-14T09:24:00.667-05:00Seems to me your disclaimer about Boo-Boo is misgu...Seems to me your disclaimer about Boo-Boo is misguided.

Actually, I should say TWO voice sessions - the two couldn't stand each other and refused to work together.Stilton Jarlsberghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14503164551782304564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7872824448661214592.post-54807717717753153962015-09-14T06:46:09.109-05:002015-09-14T06:46:09.109-05:00@Steve- I thought it was smaaaaaaaaaarter than the...@Steve- I thought it was smaaaaaaaaaarter than the average gag.<br /><br />@TrickyRicky- Although if Yogi & Boo Boo <i>were</i> stoners, it would explain their constant desire to steal the munchies out of pic-a-nic baskets.Stilton Jarlsberghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14503164551782304564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7872824448661214592.post-24072892187629395682015-09-14T05:24:08.012-05:002015-09-14T05:24:08.012-05:00I'm just glad I didn't have to see Honey B...I'm just glad I didn't have to see Honey Boo Boo this early in the morning.
