"Balt! ... Balthazar!"


Today I was reminded of a cartoon I loved as a child.

The one or two people who actually read this blog will be rubbing their eyes and saying, "What? A cartoon she loved? But she hates cartoons!"

Very true. But this one was different.

This was a Yugoslavian cartoon series from the late 60s and early 70s called "Professor Balthazar," about a little old inventor who goes around having adventures. Every so often, he would save the day by inventing a fantastical machine.

I've learned that they're digitally restoring it, too, and putting it on DVD. Whoo hoo!
