A similar theatrical series that was created as a compliment to the former was "Animation Celebration". Several others were concocted when the animation boom hit like "The British Animation Invasion" or "Outrageous Animation" and so-on.<br /><br />Many of these compilations found their way on home video c/o Expanded Entertainment, but the tapes were usually very pricey but some might be found on eBay with some luck. Pretty much how I came to at least know about these since I don't believe any of those tournees visited in my hometown at all.Chris Sobieniakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09838106041175506925noreply@blogger.com
