Date Sold 12/27/2020 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) Warner Bros. Cartoons, the 1946 stock poster for theaters showing Warner Bros Bugs Bunny Specials, Looney Tunes, and Merrie Melodies animated cartoons and featuring great early art of Bugs Bunny, Elmer Fudd, Porky Pig, Daffy Duck, and more! Note that this is a "stock" poster created by Warner Bros. in 1946 for use with all entries of their "Merrie Melodies Looney Tunes" series (every few years, they made a different stock poster). Theaters would order this poster, which had a blank area at middle right. They would either be sent a series of paper snipes with the titles of specific entries of the series, and they could paste in each snipe as needed, thus getting many posters for the price of one. Sometimes stock posters are found with blank snipe areas. Note that Warner Bros. had an earlier stock poster that they created in 1943 that had a much earlier version of Bugs Bunny on it. No doubt they created this new stock poster in 1946 because his character had evolved quite a bit over those next three years. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned two examples of this one-sheet, and those both sold five years ago sold for $817 and $802! Condition: good to very good. The poster has light water staining scattered down the right border, extending into the image at the top and bottom crossfolds. There is similar light staining in the left 7" of the top and bottom folds. Otherwise the poster is in really nice condition. This is the kind of poster that responds really well to restoration. It is likely that many or most of the stains can be removed chemically, and after proper restoration the poster will display wonderfully, but bear in mind the poster's condition and the cost of restoration before bidding on it.
