  Children's Books featuring Saturday Morning cartoons.

  Every Saturday morning, between 1959 and 1964,  we would wake up a few minutes before 6:00 am and run into the living room to turn on the TV. It was just enough time to allow the TV to warm up and to grab a bowl of Cheerios. Running back in, sloshing milk and cereal, we would find our place inches in front of the TV, and sitting Indian style, we impatiently watched  the last moments of the test pattern on the TV to glare back at us. Finally, at approximately 6:02am Saturday Morning cartoons officially began. We were mesmerized by Heckle and Jeckle, Mighty Mouse, Casper the Friendly Ghost and of course, a whole array of Hanna-Barbera Cartoons. Top Cat, Huckleberry Hound, Quick Draw McGraw, Loopy De Loop, Yogi Bear, the list was endless. The marketing world knew the power of these cartoons had over little kids who could be quite persistent with their mothers when they wanted something, like a special brand of cereal, toy or book that features one or more of the Hanna-Barbera cartoon characters. Golden Press, who published the Little Golden Books then was no different. So for a short while, Little Golden Books features authorized editions of the popular cartoons of the time. Somewhat difficult to find today and even more difficult to find in better than Very Good condition. These 45 year old and older books are a blast from the past for anyone who grew up then.

  A great site that's all about cartoons is Don Markstein's  Toonopedia.com

  More than 1000 Hanna-Barbera cartoon characters can be found at The Big Cartoon Database
