Hanna-Barbera employed top-notch background painters and I've always felt cheated that I couldn't enjoy the entire vista of a background. With that in mind, I've started capturing clips from some of the shows and recreating the backgrounds. Here are some of the results:
Here's a super-panoramic view of Race,
swinging in to rescue Jonny in
"Mystery of the Lizard Men"

Very large image (1,482 x 234 pixels)
A great, atmospheric shot of the mummy in
"Curse of Anubis"
Larger image (1020 x 236)
Race and Dr. Quest get their bazooka ready
to battle a giant Pteranadon in
"Turu the Terrible"
Storyboard drawing of this scene
Dr. Norman's Lab on Cave Island before
the creation of "The Invisible
Monster" ...
and after ...
Thanks to Scott Carter for help on
the "Invisible Monster" images.
