Did people literally just draw thousands of pictures that looked almost identical and then they stitched them together, like a flip book? How did they do it, and how was it even remotely cost-effective and worth the effort?

Yes, I went to an animation school for the summer and that’s basically what I did all summer. You would trace what you drew and make the adjustments. This was done on a table that was angled/sloped and had a light fixture inside that would let the paper be translucent so you could see the outline of your drawing. My teacher said that you basically where making a flip book but with modern tech we would just scan the drawings with a scanner and stitch then together on a computer. This was when computer animation was still too costly.
