The forgotten work of animator Richard Williams is brought back to life with rare films and footage newly found. While we are not affiliated with Mr. Williams, we aim to bring back to the public eye his unfinished animation masterpiece The Thief and the Cobbler. The history behind the film is shown via vintage documentaries. Other films by Williams, his commercials, and other miscellaneous materials are presented to give a fuller picture of his work.

All material is edited, compiled and restored by Garrett Gilchrist. This channel founded by Patrick McCart and currently run by Garrett Gilchrist.

Extremely special thanks to all the collectors and animators who have donated video and film to our archive.
