BARRY MOSER. B. 1940. BARRY MOSER. B. 1940. Ink and/or pencil on tracing paper, being 9 preliminary drawings for illustrations for Jump! The Adventures of Brer Rabbit (San Diego: Harcourt Brace Jovanovich, 1986), various sizes, each signed with initials, some corner creases. The Brer Rabbit stories are the most beloved of all American folk tales. However the thick dialect employed by Joel Chandler Harris as Uncle Remus in the most famous rendering of these trickster tales has proved to be too difficult (and offensive) for modern readers. Legendary arranger and record producer Van Dyke Parks and Malcolm Jones adapted five in verse for young readers as a a record album and a popular picture book illustrated by Barry Moser. School Library Journal called it certainly the best of all the editions now in print. These drawings (several of which are highly finished) were the basis for the final watercolors that appeared in the published book.
