    Description

    Long Haired Hare "Giovanni Jones" Sign Production Background Art Setup (Warner Brothers, 1949). Here's a truly iconic stand-alone background image from the cartoon where Bugs Bunny battles with stuffy opera singer Giovanni Jones (voiced by Nicolai Shutorov) at the Hollywood Bowl. Who doesn't remember this wonderfully funny Chuck Jones-directed cartoon? The art (seen as a close-up in the cartoon) is in gouache on hand-trimmed board marked Overlay Sc. 13 1080, and placed over a second production background painting of the amphitheater, marked Sc 45, with thumb tacks in the corners. Fine condition. Now that's a nice fat opera singer!
