Description from the seller
Limited edition Warner Bros. authorized sericel depicting Foghorn Leghorn with Henery Hawk, two iconic characters from the classic Looney Tunes series.
The image is based on the original theatrical short The Egg-Cited Rooster (1952), directed by Robert McKimson, and reflects the visual style of Warner Bros.’ Golden Age animation. While the original cartoon dates from 1952, this sericel was produced later, most likely during the 1980s–1990s, as part of Warner Bros.’ official limited edition animation art programs.
The artwork features clean linework, bold flat colors, and expressive character design consistent with mid-century Warner Bros. animation, while the production format corresponds to later licensed collectible sericels rather than vintage production cels.
The piece bears the official Warner Bros. Limited Edition Series seal, confirming its authenticity as a licensed animation art collectible derived from original studio artwork.
