Auction History Result 6y0313 WARNER BROS CARTOON linen 1sh 1948 great art of Bugs Bunny at drawing board with other toons! Date Sold 12/22/2020 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. Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good. The poster's top blank border was trimmed off. It had tiny paper loss at the crossfolds and some creases and fine surface paper loss on parts of the folds. It had pinholes and some small stains in the rest of the borders, with a few pinholes in the image. Overall, the poster was in good condition prior to linenbacking. Some restorer mounted it on linen, replacing the missing top blank border, but then they did no further restoration, for unknown reasons. It was backed pretty well, and certainly, another restorer could finish the restoration without re-backing the poster, but bear the above in mind before bidding on this.
