An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) One Ham's Family, the 1943 Tex Avery animated animation cartoon comedy short (one of Tex Avery's best!; it is a sequel to the classic "Three Little Pigs" story, where the pig who lived in the brick house has a family, and when they go to sleep on Christmas Eve, his young children want to see Santa Claus come, and the Big Bad Wolf seizes on this opportunity and comes disguised as Santa Claus!) featuring the voices of Pinto Colvig, and Kent Rogers. Note that Fred "Tex" Avery was one of the greatest legends of Hollywood animation. He started working for Walter Lantz on Oswald the Lucky Rabbit in the early 1930s. He moved to Warner Bros. in 1935, where he became a legend, working on the Merry Melodies and Looney Tunes series, creating or developing the best remembered Warner Bros. cartoon characters, including Daffy Duck, Porky Pig, Bugs Bunny, and others. In 1941, after a disagreement, he briefly worked on a series called "Speaking of Animals", where real animals "talked" with animated lips, but he soon signed a contract with MGM, where he did even more wonderful work than before. He developed an entirely new type of cartoon (his MGMs are instantly recognizable as being "Tex Averys"), and they include characters such as Droopy, The Wolf, Red Hot Riding Hood, and many others. He is one of the greatest animators ever, and posters from his cartoons are difficult to obtain, and are highly sought after by collectors! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography.
