Candy, Andy & The Bearandas - Alain Dein
Candy, Andy & The Bearandas - In a perfect English village, two panda bears, Mr. and Mrs. Bearanda, raise their plastic children, Candy and Andy.
Conceived by Gerry Anderson's Century 21 Productions (Thunderbirds, Captain Scarlet) for the 1960s comics market, the images created for the photostrips take a uniquely surreal look at domesticity, family and childhood. Because of their unusual nature, they never achieved the popularity of Anderson's other characters, and the comics were discontinued after a year.
This photo book presents the best original transparencies from this brilliantly bizarre project: driving their striped Mini, preparing for bonfire night or taking a boat ride, Candy, Andy and the Bearandas live in an unforgettable, dreamlike world. The carefully restored images are lovingly presented in a leatherette hardback binding (with embossing and integrated cover image).
The book also includes a foreword by Gerry Anderson's son, Jamie Anderson, and an introduction tracing the history of the Candy Project by historian and animator Alan Dein.
