Signed Muhammad Ali EMPTY THAT GLOVE Looney Tunes Cel

Lot Passed

"Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee, the Looney Tunes are in the ring with Muhammad Ali!" * This dynamic image captures "The Greatest" Muhammad Ali preparing for a bout with the heavyweight champion of cartoon comedy, "That Oscar-winning Rabbit," Bugs Bunny. Referee Yosemite Sam is admonishing the Wascally Wabbit (on stilts!) to cease and desist with the age-old gag and empty his glove of contraband. Digitally dropped into the cartoon world through the magic of modern technology, the Olympic Gold Medallist and three-time world Heavyweight Champion Muhammad Ali once again joins the Looney Tunes characters for an unforgettable cartoon bout! Signed by Muhammad Ali Edition is 650 numbered impressions, plus 65 AP and 20 HC 1997 Dimensions: 16 × 20 Excellent condition Certificate of Authenticity from Warner Bros. This limited edition cel began with an original drawing of the characters. The master ink line of this drawing, along with the Warner Bros. Seal of authenticity, was then silk screened onto an acetate sheet (or "cel"). Each cel was then expertly hand painted on the reverse side. The original background was reproduced using the lithography process.PLEASE NOTE: The autograph may vary from cel to cel due to Ali's health conditions at the time of the signing.
