An Art Print (signed by artist Tom Whalen; 15/17; artist's proof; measures 18" x 24" [46 x 61 cm]) (Learn More) Popeye the Sailor Meets Sindbad the Sailor, the 1936 Dave Fleischer animated animation cartoon comedy short featuring the voices of Jack Mercer (as Popeye), Mae Questel (as Olive Oyl), and Gus Wickie (as Sindbad). Note that Dave Fleischer (along with his brother Max) were legends and pioneers in animated films. They made the very first sound cartoon in 1924, beating Walt Disney by several years. They had great success with their Out of the Inkwell cartoons, Popeye, Betty Boop, and much more, including the Superman cartoons, widely regarded as the finest cartoons ever made! But after Walt Disney made Snow White, the Fleischers made Gulliver's Travels, which did not do well at the box office, and their next major project, Mr. Bug Goes To Town, had the bad fortune to be released two days before the attack on Pearl Harbor, and it also did poorly. At this same time, the Fleischer brothers had a major falling out, and in 1942, they split completely. After they made the last of their Superman cartoons in 1942, Paramount ceased control of their studio. Each of the brothers made a few more cartoons, but their careers were essentially over.

Also note that this print is an "artist's proof" that was printed in a much lesser amount for the artist by the printer (note that "AP" written on the print). Since AP's are "closer to the artist's hand" they tend to be much more valuable than the prints of a signed and numbered limited edition! Condition: very good to fine. The limited edition art print is in excellent condition, but it may have extremely minor defects, so please do not bid unless you have looked at our super-sized image and can accept this possibility.
