An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) Barney Bear's Polar Pest, the 1944 George Gordon animated animation cartoon. 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.
