Auction History Result 7h0024 WARNER BROS CARTOON linen 1sh 1948 great art of Bugs Bunny at drawing board with other toons! Date Sold 1/24/2021 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) A Warner Bros. Cartoon, the 1948 stock poster for theaters showing Warner Bros Looney Tunes & Merrie Melodies animated cartoons featuring great art of Bugs Bunny at a drawing table, creating images of Elmer Fudd, Porky Pig, Daffy Duck, and Tweety Bird. Note that this poster has the same image as the 1952 Warner Bros. cartoon poster (they apparently re-created this poster four years later from the same plates, just changing the bottom NSS information)! Finally, note that in the 1930s, Warner Bros. made cartoon posters that had blank areas for paper snipes that would be sent separately to theaters. Apparently, this was too much trouble, and they switched to posters like these that have no blank area, and that makes for a much better looking poster than one with a big blank rectangle somewhere in the image! 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 this is one of 17 linenbacked posters we were consigned that were damaged by water. All of the posters (which we are auctioning in 17 separate auctions) became wet after they were backed, and the owner did not discover it immediately, and they dried out, causing creases and cracking scattered throughout, and they surely have mildew and possibly mold. They ABSOLUTELY need to be removed from the old linen and properly re-backed (during the process, the restorer can kill any living mold or mildew), and afterwards, the poster can again be displayed, but this is a fairly expensive process, so please DO NOT bid on this poster unless you can accept its extremely significant defects and the cost of restoring it. It should be handled very carefully until it is properly restored. What IS linenbacking? Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: poor to fair. As described above, the poster was significantly water damaged after it was linenbacked. Our super-sized image gives you a good sense of how the poster currently appears. It absolutely needs to be re-backed by a talented professional, so please very much bear this in mind before bidding on this poster. Due to the poster's much lesser condition, it will not be returnable, so only bid if you are certain you want it. Learn More about condition grades
