Gertie the Dinosaur

Gertie the Dinosaur

hey friends,

quick post today, it’s an animation from 1914 called “Gertie the Dinosaur”. kind of interesting that one of the earliest examples of “character” animation wasn’t with a person, or mammal, but with an imaginary extinct creature.

KPCC wrote a post that goes into greater depth about the history of the piece and its creator Winsor McCay. read it here.
