- Leonard Maltin, www.LeonardMaltin.com

"Hanna-Barbera, The Recorded History is a wonderful read, charting far more than just the Hanna-Barbera Records label, and not just H-B Records in general. Ehrbar tells the whole history of Bill Hanna and Joe Barbera and their partnership, tracing their younger days, meeting up at MGM, creating Tom and Jerry, and then—with the closure of the MGM cartoon unit—almost out of desperation founding what would become the largest animation company in the world. That animation studio and its characters, by the way, are very near and dear to me; and Ehrbar covers their entire history."
