Dave and Dale Cox (Third Accrual)

This accrual consists of four series, based on a listing provided by the creator. The series are as follows:

  1. Animation Books and Periodicals
  2. Animation Memorabilia
  3. Animation Cels and Drawings
  4. Animation Storyboards and Designs
    The first series, Animation Books and Periodicals, consists of the Coxes’ personal collection of books and magazines about the art of animation. This series also contains books and graphic novels based on Nelvana animated television programs - in particular, “Rock and Rule,” the “Franklin” series, and “Inspector Gadget.”
    The second series, Animation Memorabilia, consists of memorabilia collected by the Coxes related to animation, including commemorative programs and publications, brochures, a tote bag, “Babar” merchandise, an animation kit, original animation drawings from “The Pink Panther,” and several hand-cut, 3-D cartoon caricatures. This series also includes film reels and a DVD featuring some of Dave Coxes’ earliest animation work, from his time as a student at Sheridan College to animation shorts for “Sesame Street.”
    The third series, Animation Cels and Drawings, consists of original production animation cels and original production drawings from several Nelvana series and programs worked on by the Coxes, including “Cosmic Christmas,” “Intergalactic Thanksgiving,” “My Pet Monster,” “Ewoks,” “Rupert,” “Beetlejuice,” “Rome-0 and Julie-8,” “The Pink Panther,” and “Strawberry Shortcake.” This series also includes an animation cel from an animated Christmas card by Dave and Dale Cox.
    The fourth series, Animation Storyboards and Designs, consists of original storyboards and character designs created by Dave Cox, as well as copies of storyboards. Highlights include storyboards for “The New Quiz Kids,” for VideoArt Productions, as well as storyboards for several animated commercial and public service announcements. Finally, the series also includes storyboards, story ideas, and concept sketches for animated shorts and series by Dave Cox.

Dave and Dale Cox

Dave and Dale Cox (First Accrual)

This accrual contains a large selection of animation cels, toys and memorabilia relating to the cartoons the pair worked on, and conference programs they attended. As the two were also collectors of animation, it is somewhat unclear which cels were drawn by Dale or Dave, and which were purchased later on. There are notes and tips on animation, created by Dave when he worked at Nelvana, and are very detailed in describing the animation methods they used, and how to best reuse cels in future scenes. The production best represented in this accrual is the pair’s 1982 animated Christmas Card, which includes animation sketches, flip books, timing notes, and correspondence regarding the reception of the cartoon, and contracts to air the short on television. Another well represented program is Inspector Gadget, as there are notes from Dave’s time in Japan working on the program, and lots of memorabilia. There are also many cels and animation drawings from the program Ewoks.
Dates: [1966]-2018
Arrangement:
Series have been arranged to reflect the different stages in Dale and Dave Cox’s lives. Larger series with clear division of work have been further divided into sub-series.
Series 1: Independent and Early Work (1968-2015)
The first series represent the work Dale and Dave did while at Sheridan and content they created for personal use and enjoyment. Freelance work or material that was not clearly tied to another series has also been placed here.
Series 2: VideoArt Productions (1972-2018)
The second series contains programs that were created by VideoArt Productions. As the company was young and small when Dave began there, it can be assumed he worked on all the material included in this series. This was the first animation company Dave worked for, and thus the work included is all from the early stages in his career.
Series 3: Nelvana (1978-2017)
The third series has been further arranged into subseries due to the large amount of material relating to it. Nelvana is a Canadian animation studio that both Dave and Dale worked for, and have played a large part in growing their careers. Nelvana has animated many popular and award winning programs, many of which are represented in this accrual. Due to the volume of material, and the breadth of programs, the series is divided into sub-series, organized by program, the advertisement branch of Nelvana, Spotted Bear, and company files. Much of the ephemera is within this series, as are the animation cels. Production notes are also included in some subseries. Not all of the material included in this series was directly worked on by the Coxs, but may have been acquired later for their personal collection.
Series 4: Animation Magazines and Conference Material (1975-2004)
The fourth series contains more secondary material. The pair attended many international as well Canadian professional animation conferences. Often their attendance was not only for yearly professional learning, but they had also been recognized for their contribution to the art and were being awarded in some manner. Because many of the shorts they worked on were the reasons they attended, those conference material that feature these programs, Christmas Card for example, have been organized into another series. Instead, this series “Animation Magazines and Conference Material” contains conference programs and magazines that do not feature either Dave or Dale. This series is quite useful in capturing how the animation industry both in Canada and abroad has changed, as the program books and magazines were meant for professionals in the field and cover a large breadth of time.
Series 5: Collectables and Other Material Related to Animation ([1966]-2004)
The last series contains material that are clearly items Dave and Dale collected over the years that relate to animation. This includes educational VHS tapes that cover the history of animation across the world, cels from programs that are outside of the scope of any of the other series listed, and other general animation memorabilia.

Heritage Minutes 2013 acquisition

Heritage Minutes began in 1986 after Charles Bronfman’s CRB Foundation conducted a survey that found many Canadians severely lacked basic historical knowledge of their country. Using similar advertisement ploys, he began to create history-based public service announcements with the help of Patrick Watson, Robert-Guy Scully, and Richard Ciupka under the CRB Foundation. These announcements, which would later be known as Heritage Minutes, followed six main criteria: 1. Intrigue us with Canada’s heritage; 2. Be producible within resources; 3. Be truthful within the bounds of dramatic license; 4. Reflect and celebrate Canadian social and cultural values: tolerance, fairness, courage, tenacity, resourcefulness, inventiveness; 5. Reveal origins; 6. Surprise, provoke reflection, re-examination, raise questions.

After pilot episodes and bilingual focus groups, thirteen episodes were released on March 31, 1991, airing on CBC and Radio-Canada. CRB Foundation continued to release Heritage Minutes, often with the help of the National Film Board of Canada.

In 1999, the short films were renamed Historica Minutes: History by the Minute after CRB Foundation created the Historica Foundation of Canada. The company changed names again in 2009 when the Historica Foundation merged with the Dominion Institute to become the Historica-Dominion Institute. The company was renamed again to its present name Historica Canada in 2013.

Heritage Minutes have been screened by many, including Cineplex Odeon cinemas, Universal Studios Home Video Canada, and VIA Rail. In 2003, Heritage Minutes made their radio debut in 90-second dramas. They have also been the bases for multiple parodies by Canadian comedians and television programs. The 1992 Heritage Minute Halifax Explosion was a Gemini award nomination, with Steve Danyluk as director of photography. To help encourage Canadian broadcasters to air the Minutes, the CRTC has deemed them as 150-per-cent Canadian content programming.

The Heritage Minutes are produced independently without any engagement from funders in script, direction or production. Since Heritage Minutes content is educational, networks have never received payment for airing them.

All stages of production are present in this collection. This includes camera original negatives, workprints, intermediate edits, visual printing elements, soundtrack elements, film release prints, video edits, video masters, along with photographic and textual production documents.
