A Gold Medal Book from Help Magazine 1962 HARVEY KURTZMAN'S FAST-ACTING HELP! GUARANTEED MORE HABIT-FORMING THAN ANY OTHER FAST-ADDICTING DRUG For fast, fast, fast relief from blues, boredom and banality, here is a collection of uncensored impudence culled from the crazy pages of HELP!, the star satire magazine. Created by Harvey Kurtzman, the man who brought satire to the man in the street and ele- vated the comic strip to an art form, HELP! pokes think ing man's fun at practically everyone —from Kennedy to Castro, from Tarzan to Tonto, from the typing pool to the status seeker. HELP! milks all manner of sacred cows, kids the pants off movies, TV, pretty girls, Broadway producers, big business, and gives the final proof that levity is the soul of wit. This book is dedicated to: Tony Ahearne Jackie Gleason Tony Palladino Chuck Alverson Norm Glovsky Shirley Peterson Orson Bean Bob Grossman Tom Poston Burt Bernstein Ron Harris Roger Price Bob Blechman Marc Hiesler Larry Richman Ray Bradbury Bill Helmer Ron Rojas Algis Budrys Mimi Hines Mike Rokofi Knox Burger Art Hyde Arnold Roth Sid Caesar Phil Interlandi Mort Sahl Nona Candler Frank Interlandi Stewart Schwartzberg Jack Carter Al Jaffee Rod Serling Harry Chester Will Jordan Jack Severin Paul Coker Milt Kamen David Shaber INTRODUCTION Jack Davis Jan Kindler Jean Shepherd Peter de Vries George Kirgo Robert Sheckley I think it was Sam Goldwyn who, when Hugh Downs Ernie Kovacs Shel Silverstein giving an opinion on "message" movies Jim Durst Nancy Kovack Bernie Shir-Cliff said the following immortal words: "You Don Edwing Bruce Krefting Gloria Steinem want to send a message—call Western Will Eisner Jerry Lewis Dick Van Dyke Union."

They began working in the early 1900s, at the same time as Walt Disney, but while Disney went on to become a household name, the Fleischers are barely remembered. Our film will change this, introducing a wide national audience to a family of brothers – Max, Dave, Lou, Joe, and Charlie – who created Fleischer Studios and a roster of animated characters who reflected the rough and tumble sensibilities of their own Jewish immigrant neighborhood in Brooklyn, New York. “The Fleischer story involves the glory of American Jazz culture, union brawls on Broadway, gangsters, sex, and southern segregation,” says advisor Tom Sito. Advisor Jerry Beck adds, “It is a story of rags to riches – and then back to rags – leaving a legacy of iconic cinema and evergreen entertainment.” BUDGET Outright Request 600,000.00 Cost Sharing 90,000.00 Matching Request 0.00 Total Budget 690,000.00 Total NEH 600,000.00 GRANT ADMINISTRATOR Ms.
