Auction History Result 3d196 TOM & JERRY 80 8x10 stills '40s - '50s cat & mouse cartoon images, an amazing archive, rare! Date Sold 12/6/2015 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. 80 Original Vintage Theatrical 8" x 10" [20 x 25 cm] Movie Stills (Learn More) Tom and Jerry is a classic series of animated animation cartoons created by William Hanna and Joseph Barbera (Hanna-Barbera). The first one was created in 1940, and there as a total of 114 cartoons through 1957. Seven of these won Academy Awards for Best Cartoon, tying for most wins with Walt Disney's Silly Symphonies. There were around 50 more cartoons created after the first run ended, through the early 2000s, and there were also TV shows based on these classic characters. Some people have criticized the cartoons for their "excessive violence", but actually no blood or gore was ever shown in any of them, and this type of violence is commonly referred to as "cartoon violence". Many of the Tom and Jerry cartoons are extremely clever and make wonderful use of music. They are not nearly as appreciated today as they should be, but in their day, they were among the most popular cartoons of the 1940s! Important Added Info: Note that this is an amazing archive of 80 original MGM stills that were created when these cartoons were first released. Each has printing on the back describing the specific cartoon. These stills are incredibly rare, but here is an opportunity to purchase 80 different ones all at one time! Note: We have 160 images (the front and back of all of the 80 stills in this set), and we have photographed them 8 at a time. But due to a space limitation, only some of the images are displayed above. However, there is a "supersize" link to the right of those images that lets you see ALL the images of all EIGHTY stills (front and back).
UPDATED 12/01/2015: Note that there was a typo in the Auction Title which listed the date as '90s when it should have said '40s - '50s. We are 100% certain that these stills are from when the cartoons were first released in the 1940s and 1950s, and we have updated the Auction Title accordingly. Condition: very good to fine. The stills have some very minor wear, but are overall in nice condition! Learn More about condition grades
