Auction History Result #0611 MERRY MELODIES linen 1sh 32 Warner Bros Date Sold 3/11/2003Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked One-Sheet Movie Poster (27" x 41") (Learn More) The Merrie Melodies, the 1932 animated animation cartoon short stock poster ("Great Comedy. Peppy Tunes. Zippy Action."; "A Vitaphone Short Subject Song Cartoon") featuring many images of animated characters. Note that this poster was created before Warner Brothers began to create its most memorable characters such as Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, and Porky Pig, and so the cartoon characters on the poster are not at all remembered today (except by major cartoon buffs). 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: This poster has been professionally linenbacked. It now looks great, and most dealers would describe it as "fine (or mint) on linen". We have noted the defects that were restored below (and feel everyone should always do this!). Many collectors would not be aware of the restoration this poster has had unless it was specifically shown to them! Condition: very good. This poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. It appears to have had the following defects: the borders of the poster had tears, smudges, and small areas of paper loss and the restorer placed new paper over much of the old borders (this is a common practice and was done so well that few collectors would realize it had been done). The image area had some creases in the top right going into the "RRIE" of "MERRIE", but the image area was surprisingly free of defects. The defects were mostly corrected during the linenbacking process, but you can still see evidence of the defects when you look close up. But from any distance away, the poster looks quite nice!
