An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) Old Rockin' Chair Tom, the 1948 Joseph Barbera & William Hanna (Hanna-Barbera) Tom & Jerry feline cat & mouse animated animation cartoon comedy cartoon short (produced by Fred Quimby; an unusual entry in the series, where Tom and Jerry actually work together, because Mammy Two-Shoes gets a new younger cat, Lightning, to replace the aging Tom, and they join forces to get rid of the interloper, which neither of them wants) featuring the voice of Lillian Randolph (as Mammy Two-Shoes). Note that Tom and Jerry is a classic series of cartoons created by William Hanna and Joseph Barbera. The first one was created in 1940, and there as a total of 114 cartoons through 1957. Seven of these won Academy Awards for Best Cartoon, tying for most wins with Walt Disney's Silly Symphonies. There were around 50 more cartoons created after the first run ended, through the early 2000s, and there were also TV shows based on these classic characters. Some people have criticized the cartoons for their "excessive violence", but actually no blood or gore was ever shown in any of them, and this type of violence is commonly referred to as "cartoon violence". Many of the Tom and Jerry cartoons are extremely clever and make wonderful use of music. They are not nearly as appreciated today as they should be, but in their day, they were among the most popular cartoons of the 1940s! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography.
