Description

The Return of the King (1980)
Frodo & Sam in Mordor

Original master setup of background painting and animation cel from the animated fantasy film by Rankin/Bass and Topcraft.

The animation production was done by Topcraft in Japan under supervision of Toru Hara, Tsuguyuki Kubo, Kazuyuki Kobayashi and others.

The studio went bankrupt and dissolved on June 15, 1985, essentially splitting the studio in half. Hayao Miyazaki, Toshio Suzuki and Isao Takahata formed Studio Ghibli. Topcraft's founder, Toru Hara, became Studio Ghibli's first manager.
