Lovely man!

He worked on the same drawings as Japanese animation (Anime) especially a Japanese-American co-production film, Little Nemo: Adventures in Slumberland. George Nicholas' animation does the similar thing to Japanese, Japanese-American and Japanese-Canadian animators and other international animators of Japanese descent.

At Disneys, George animated Jaq and Gus in Cinderella,
Lady from Lady and the tramp, the fairies in Sleeping Beauty and I know he did assistant work on Fantasia. But I wonder what other projects at the studio he did as an assistant.
