10 Origins of Popular Cartoon Characters

(via Listverse) History has always fascinated me, and I love to find out about ancestry and family trees. Leading on from my previous list, 10 Beatles Songs and the Origins, this sequel reveals the stories behind several popular cartoon characters. This publication was created over a period of six months, using videos, interviews, books and many other sources. The list is not only unique to Listverse but also unique in the whole world, as no book, web page or website has yet provided an all-in-one exclusive source of this information before – that is until now.
