Description: Wow! 2 Rare CHUCK JONES PRODUCTION Original Hand Painted Production Animation Cel's of "Wile E. Coyote" from Warner's Brothers, We titled "Wile E Coyote in Chase". Nicely Matted with Color Background Board, Chuck Jones Production, Warner Bros Inc. Official Stamp & COA, From a Large Private Collection of Chuck Jones' Production Cel WorksMatte's are 20" W x 16" H, Visible Cel areas are Approx 12.125" W x 10.125" H Just Reduced!!! Note: We will be listing many other original production cels from this film with Wile E. Coyote in chase & other, some in sequence with this, some not, they will be listed as quickly as we can get to them. We also have many other Chuck Jones cels from other films listed and coming soon. These sharp hand painted Original Animation Production 12 Field Cel's are from Chuck Jones Production featuring "Wile E. Coyote in Chase" from "The Road Runner Movie" released in 1979, one of the numerous cartoons by Chuck Jones with Wile E Coyote. These feature his upper body in great color, action & images, the legs were likely on another cel that would have been matched to this. This cel was made in association with Warner Brothers of course, but produced during a very prolific period for Chuck Jones during the 1970's we think. He made a number of TV specials during this era including others such as three made for TV films by Jones from "The Jungle Book". "The White Seal" 1975 & "Mowgli's Brothers" 1976 & Rikki Tikki Tavi 1975. He also did "A Cricket in Times Square" & it's sequel, "Yankee Doodle Cricket" & more. We have cels listed or to be listed from those films as well. There will also be other Warner Brother's cels with Bugs Bunny, Wile E. Coyote & more. These authentic cels are getting tougher to find as time goes by due to growing collector interest in this collecting genre & hobby & Wile E. Coyote is certainly a collector favorite. The cream color background cel is in near mint condition, matte & background board are in very nice shape as well, but not quite perfect (not that any cels are). The darker background color cel is in excellent to near mint condition but does have some minor raised wave areas on cel as shown in pictures from gallery and a few really small indents but is outstanding as well. Please review all pictures taken to assist you with determining condition & use zoom feature if needed, but it looks terrific. These are both firmly matted & suitable for framing if you choose. We had another cel from this collector with Wile E Coyote from this same sequence & scene and it was marked from "The Roadrunner Movie so we assume both are from the same film. That one is for sale in our store as well. We acquired a number of these Wile E. Coyote cels and are very honored to offer them to the collecting public. We bundled these 2 cel's to save collectors money, Wile E. Coyote cells can sell each from $350-$600+, we are pricing ours well under that as a pair. Effectively under $300 each which is rare for this quality & you save on shipping. The background colors are on the matting board. Prices on these authentic pieces can sometimes go to more than double our price, but we encourage buyers to do their own research on such and not rely on our opinion. If you decide to buy more than one of our listed (non auction) cels by Chuck Jones, let us know and we may offer a discount on multi items purchased. Stay tuned for more! The collector we acquired this work from had literally hundreds of rare production cel pieces from various works by Jones, many in consecutive series, which we have personally not seen much outside of a studio sale 20 years ago perhaps. This has a Chuck Jones Production mark on lower left of cel & a standard COA Paper that came with this when purchased. This is nicely matted & shows slot cuts in matte at bottom from production process, which we prefer as well as series #'s from the film. Chuck Jones (Sept 21, 1912 - Feb 22, 2002) is among the elite of the elite cartoon artists & film innovators in history. If you are looking at this listing, you likely already know this. In his extensive career he created such characters as the Road Runner, Wile E. Coyote, Pepe LePew, & Marvin the Martian (and others) as well as helping refine the characters of Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Elmer Fudd, Porky Pig & more along the way. Each of these hand painted cels are from a talented animation artist's hand & a part of cartoon film history. We feel the collecting of Authentic Animation Art is truly one of the neatest collectible genres. Not only do you get a piece of a gifted animation artist's work, each piece is part of a living history of the movies and films they were used in & they make exceptional display items. It's a bit like owning a World Series game used bat from a baseball player, at least we feel that way. But in this case the World Series never ends as the cartoons keep playing and playing. We have dozens of these original Chuck Jones Animation Cels coming to market in next few weeks. We will sell some in bundles or series & others as individual pieces, but all will offer something special. We even have many in small sequences (running production numbers), extremely hard to find. We have Bugs Bunny, Tucker the Mouse, Wile E Coyote & many characters from Rikki Tikki Tavi, A Cricket in King Arthur's Court, White Seal, Carnival of Animals & more. Please Note: There may be some image reflection & distortion present in pictures as cels are plastic (or acetate) & reflective of course. (In some cases, we may photograph artwork in different light settings to try and capture a painting, sculpture or other artwork's look in different settings. Therefore there may be some variations in color from one picture to another. The photos are not altered, but may have been photographed in a brighter room, with natural light, a flash feature or other. Also, we try to note any visible defects we can see but there may be wear or imperfections we miss. Please view all pictures taken for your consideration and use zoom feature if needed. Likewise, you can always notify us with questions.) Please Read: See our Feedback & Buy with confidence. We ship with extreme care and all items are fully insured! We often take from 30-60 minutes packing more delicate & odd sized items to make sure your treasure is protected. We also photograph most items above $100 while packing in case a shipper were to ever damage an item (only 1 time in over 2,000 US shipped sales). For this reason, if an item is ever damaged, it will be the Buyer's responsibility to file a claim with the shipping service and we can provide photos from packing to assist Buyers. The process is not difficult, but the timing of such does not allow adequate time for the item to be returned to us and then for us to proceed with a claim (chain of custody questions can arise as well on returned items due to double shipping and handling so it is just easier for Buyers). So again, as noted in listing, we do not offer returns. Sales tax is charged according to your state or country's regulations. Of course, there is free local pick up and we can meet to assist if you are near Indianapolis or driving through. We do this often. We require signature confirmation your item if it is above $100, so plan accordingly. We can send without signature confirmation if you request, but if item is marked delivered, but comes up missing, buyer would assume all responsibility for loss, as insurance will not cover items without signature confirmation. Also, FedEx & Others are beginning to require signature on items above $500-$700. Also, we have discounts with FedEx & eBay on shipping which do not always show up in eBay estimates on shipping. We try to refund what we can when there is a notable difference, but we do not know until we actually process the shipping order. Please follow our store if you love rare antiques, primitives and collectibles of many types. We scour the land for the rarest and neatest of items for our Buyers who love them. We offer everything from rusty industrial to fine art by renowned US and foreign artists. We have Historic American, Antique advertising, Salesmen samples, Oil Paintings & sculptures by noted artists, Farm Primitives, Antique lighting fixtures and Aladdin lamps, militaria, Classic Comics, Sports Memorabilia and much, much more. We usually have about 450 items in various price ranges from $10 to $3,500+, but our inventory changes almost daily. We have sold to Hollywood, Corporate Executives & CEO's, Resorts, B&B's & Museums, but mostly to people who simply love rare and nifty items. It is our honor to offer these treasures to you.
