BOWERY BUGS
Hand-Painted Limited Edition Animation Cel (of 500),
with BUGS BUNNY
SIGNED by ART DAVIS

from Warner Brothers/Clampett Studios

Comes with a Clampett/WB Certificate of Authenticity

We are honored to be part of the studio gallery program, which means we can offer you amazing licensed Warner Brothers animation art direct from the studio and their vaults via Clampett Studios (Run by Ruth Clampett, Bob Clampett's daughter. She also ran the WB studio stores in the malls in the 80's/90's!). And this piece, based on the characters from Looney Tunes is a knock-out!

This limited edition was inspired by the 1949 Merrie Melodies cartoon, “Bowery Bugs,” the first such edition to honor the work of Warner Bros. director Art Davis. This image captures the endlessly multifaceted Bugs (as “Swami Rabbitima” – one of three ruse characters Bugs portrays in this one cartoon) putting one over on the endlessly gullible rube Steve Brody. Bugs leads Brody on a series of wild errands (in search of good luck) that ends with a swan-dive off the Brooklyn Bridge.

This limited edition cel began with a drawing recreated from the original animation. The master character line was then serigraph screen printed onto an acetate sheet (or “cel”) along with the Warner Bros. Masters Collection/Art Davis seal. Each cel was then expertly hand-painted on the reverse side. The original background was reproduced using the lithography process on acid-free paper. In the final step of production, the edition number was hand-inked on each cel in an edition size of 500. Finally, Mr. Davis approved each cel with his signature.
