Auction History Result 6h0105 BAH WILDERNESS 1sh 1943 art of Barney Bear scared of rabbit & shooting rifle, ultra rare! Date Sold 4/14/2024 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) Bah Wilderness, the 1943 Rudolf Ising animated animation cartoon comedy short (Barney is camping in the woods, and is wakened over and over by wild animals, so he sets traps for them, but mostly traps himself, and at the climax of the cartoon, he is caught by a storm that floods the area and washes him away, depositing him at his front door!) featuring the voice of Rudolf Ising (as Barney Bear), Pinto Colvig, Jeanne Dunne, and Frank Bingman. Note that Barney Bear was one of the most popular MGM cartoon characters of the 1940s. He first appeared in 1939 in "The Bear That Couldn't Sleep", and was created by director Rudolf Ising. In 1941, he was given his own series of cartoons. Barney Bear was a very large slow moving sleepy bear who usually was simply wanting to rest, and the other characters kept disturbing him. Some of the animators who worked on the Barney Bear cartoons also worked on Tex Avery cartoons, but Avery himself never worked on a Barney Bear cartoon. The last Barney Bear cartoon was made in 1954, although he was resurrected decades later. A curious footnote is that in a 1953 cartoon, Barney Bear is mentioned as living in Jellystone Park, which of course would later become the home of Hanna-Barbera's Yogi Bear. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that ANY movie paper from this cartoon is incredibly rare. We have never auctioned even a single movie paper item from this movie until we received this one-sheet! Condition: good to very good. There is 7" of separation in the top of the vertical fold, with separation and tiny paper loss at the crossfolds, with a few tiny tears on parts of the folds. There are pinholes, creases, and small tears around the edges. After a simple linenbacking, the poster will display really well! Learn More about condition grades
