Over a period of 30 years Oliver Postgate and Peter Firmin made a series of classic animations. But who is Oliver Postgate? How did this pair meet up and how did they get started? Seeing Things answers all these questions and many that you had never thought to ask. If you are looking for a technical manual for making your own animations then this is not the book for you. If you are looking for an varied, humorous and insight into the mind who made these programs then we can throughly recommend Seeing Things
The Little Book of Bagpuss is a small format gift book with details of Bagpuss and his old friends and space for you to write about your new friends.
"This book presents the Smallfilms archive - the puppets and cut-outs from these series, along with insights into how they were made. It's a book full of pipe cleaners, cotton wool, wire and ping-pong balls, and celebrates the imagination and ingenuity of two artists who shaped the childhoods of a generation."
The 2001 Bagpuss Annual is packed full of stories, things to make, puzzles and of course Bagpuss and his Friends
As well as the animated series of Bagpuss, Oliver and Peter wrote some of their stories as these delightful books
