Silliness from 1985

For a few months at the start of 1985, Don and I (james) sat next to each-other in a room just outside the layout department, at Hanna Barbera. This was just before Don got his own space a few doors down Atchison street, behind Peter Luschwitz' place. Anyway, we would sometimes leave silly nonsensical drawings on each-other's desks when the other wasn't there. Here is a typical back and forward of absurdism from that time:

Jamie's post gave me names to some caricatures that I had forgotten the names of. Here are Peter Sheehan , Nancy Lockwood and another model sheet of one of the crazy hair cuts of Lynette McLean. Also one of my previous drawings is Marshall Hughes not Don Tonkin. I have got some more drawings that I will send later of people who's names I have forgotten. I hope the drawings are good enough that someone one can put a name to them.
