Grantray-Lawrence Animation
Grantray-Lawrence Animation was a Canadian animation studio active from 1954 to 1967 and founded by Grant Simmons , Ray Patterson , and Robert Lawrence .
This animation company produced numerous low budget television animation productions until it went bankrupt in 1967.
Its productions included:
- Max the 2000-Year-Old Mouse
- Marvel Super-Heroes Show
- Spider-Man
The last series has proven by far to be the most durable with its theme song becoming a popular standard that is frequently covered and parodied.
In addition, given its country of origin, the Canadian content broadcasting regulations ensured the company's product would be aired almost continually in some form on Canadian television.
