- Description
- Henry Jamison "Jam" Handy (March 6, 1886 – November 13, 1983) was an American Olympic breaststroke swimmer, water polo player, and leader in the field of commercial audio and visual communications. Handy was noted for the vast number of ephemeral training films that he produced (over 7,000 films just for the armed services during World War II). The Jam Handy Organization was probably best known for producing the first animated version of the then-new Christmas story Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer directed by Max Fleischer. General Motors selected Handy's organization to produce short training films as well as other training and promotional materials. One such film was "Hired!" – a training film for sales managers at Chevrolet dealerships. This film was eventually featured as two parts on the Mystery Science Theater 3000 episodes Bride of the Monster and Manos: The Hands of Fate. The Mystery Science Theater 3000 team also spoofed the Handy film short, "A Case of Spring Fever" during the Squirm episode, one of the final shows for the entire MST3K series. This LP (as best we can tell) is the audio track for one of the Jam Handy Organization's many training films entitled "The Teacher".
