HASSAN CHOP

Presented is a limited-edition Looney Tunes animation cel signed by legendary animator and director Chuck Jones. The framed piece depicts Bugs Bunny alongside Hassan, the hulking, sword-wielding guard memorably featured in the 1957 Warner Bros. animated short Ali Baba Bunny.

Directed by Jones, Ali Baba Bunny follows Bugs and Daffy Duck after their travels unexpectedly lead them to a treasure-filled cave in the Arabian Desert. There they encounter Hassan, whose repeated command of "Hassan chop!" provides one of the short's recurring gags. The cartoon became a memorable showcase for the contrasting personalities of Bugs and Daffy, pairing Bugs' cool resourcefulness with Daffy's increasingly obsessive pursuit of treasure.

The offered cel captures Hassan looming over Bugs, who appears beside an overflowing chest of gold, jewels, and pearls. Jones has signed the lower portion in black marker. The limited-edition notation "147/200" appears nearby. The cel is presented in a gold-tone frame measuring approximately 17.25 x 15.25 inches. Digital LOA from Grad Authentication (GA-10741) for signature. The limited-edition piece is serial-numbered "147/200."

​Companion Piece: Daffy Duck and Hassan (Call Me A Cab).  ​

​​​​​​​​FOGHORN AND HENERY  

Presented is a 17.25-by-15.25-inch framed and matted limited edition (#179/200) Looney Tunes animation cel of Foghorn Leghorn and Henery Hawk, which has been signed by the legendary Charles "Chuck" Jones. The comically opposing bird duo has been depicted together since they co-starred in the 1946 Henery Hawk animate short Walky Talky Hawky, with both periodically appearing in Looney Tunes productions to this day. Framed and matted on top of a background illustration of grass against a blue sky, this cel depicts Henery berating Leghorn as the latter holds the much smaller chickenhawk in his hand. Jones has penned his flowing signature in the bottom-right corner of the cel, along with a personalized inscription reading "For Bob McKimson," using black ink. An hand numbered cel "179/200" in the same corner, also using black ink. The entire edition was hand dedicated to "Bob McKimson", not just one. A 1984 Warner Bros. Inc copyright is located in the bottom-left corner of the cel, opposite a gold Linda Jones Enterprises Inc. seal of authenticity. This item is accompanied with a Certificate of authenticiy.

​Companion Piece: Foghorn and Henry II.

HARLEY QUINN TOYS WITH BATMAN

Warner Bros. Gallery Limited Edition Cel.   

Batman The Animated Series Harley Quinn and Batman battle it out in a classic 16" field hand-painted cel created by Warner Bros. Studio Store Galleries in 1994. 

Edition #236/500

This cel was created to capture a key pose of both Batman and Harley in a special scene. Created in 1994 at the famed Warner Bros. animation studio, the original drawing was hand-inked and the master ink line was serigraph screen printed on an acetate sheet (or "cel"). These lines were augmented with hand-inked "self-color" lines on the front of the cel, to help create the trademark shadows on the characters. In traditional animation style, the cels were then expertly hand-painted on the reverse side. The dark, mood-setting background was created specifically for this cel by the same artists that create Batman: The Animated Series and was printed using a four-color lithography process. Each piece was hand-numbered and printed with the Warner Bros. seal of authenticity.​​

Companion Piece: Animated Series Batman Signed Batman Lightning
