Item Description
This exceptional item is for the now classic Tim Burton film from 1993. Disney produces, in very limited quantity, style guides for their films, sometimes many years prior to its release. These guides are developed by Disney for licensees, companies who pay the license fees to develop Disney products. These guides provide all the artwork, typography, patterns, color palettes, editorials, logos, etc. needed by the licensee to develop whatever type of product they wish to produce following the necessary guide lines of the Disney company for the character, movie, etc. This particular style guide has unique packaging in the form of a 12x16x2.5" deep heavy cardboard tombstone-shaped box. High gloss finish with film title printed on the spine and an embossed image on the top of Jack Skellington. This opens to reveal a 3-ring binder containing about 150 pages broken down into 6 categories "Program Over-view/Film Reference/Product Concepts/Design Elements/Character Art/Situation Art." Featured are nice concept drawings, storyboards, film stills, concept art for merchandise including extensive assortment of clothing, Mayor bank, watches, Christmas ornaments, party goods, promotional displays, much, much more.These guides were often cut up and sections removed to be used by the design and marketing departments of the companies that received them. This example is complete, uncut and N. Mint A truly exceptional item and a must for any Nightmare collector.
