Disney's movie "THE FOX AND THE HOUND" supposedly was to be the first animated feature of the studio's new age. As it turned out that title went to "The Little Mermaid" a few years later but the bigger question, one that still eludes me, was why grown college guys had a poster for the former flick hanging in their creative office. As Craig M. mentioned in an earlier post we were, however, always looking for some movie to rip-off for a Coupon Bonanza cover and I had felt the Disney film was ripe for ripping. Staying true to the movie poster (perhaps Craig can find that online) I rendered this... but for obvious reasons it didn't fly and we went with 'The Coupon Zone' instead.
CRAIG ADDS: Since Jeff requested, here it is for comparison:
A few more recollections: As you might guess, Jeff's prospective cover was titled "The Fox and the Coupon," and somewhere on it, he had penciled his version of the actual poster's themeline, something like,
"The story of two friends who didn't know that one of them was redeemable at various outlets around town."
Along with his other perversions of the Disney poster ("Dammit, Chief!"), for some reason, I always thought the sight of the owl throwing her unborn children at the farmer's wife was hilarious. (Maybe it's just me...)
