Item Description
Large 15x23.75" sheet of tracing paper with cut-out top edge has art in watercolor/pencil. c. 1930s. Text at right reads "Free Animated Cartoon Movie Flip Book - See Harold Teen - Shadow - Lillums And Pop Jenks In Action Just Like A Real Movie - Given Free With The Purchase Of Swift's Ice Cream" and below is ice cream carton. At left are large images of Lillums, Shadow and Harold Teen, Lillums holding "Harold Clicks Scene 1" 2 characters in flip book with Harold's portrait while other half showing Shadow and Dimples is partially covered by her thumb. Lower left has hand-painted "Tricky - Fascinating Fun - Flip The Pages And See Pop Jenks Jerk A Soda - See Lillums Do The Shag - See Shadow And Dimples Cut A Rug - See Harold And His Leaping Lena" text. Moderate scattered margin wear, mostly along top edge including number of light creases on Harold Teen's head. At top of text are three 1-1.5" tears, 2 with archival tape repairs on back. Tip of last letter in "Free" is missing. A few additional long crease lines, the collar of Lillums' dress once had 4 white painted accent dots but paint is now gone. Some bow painted areas have tiny pinpoints of color gone, but nothing serious and it remains strong overall. Fine. Unique. From the archives of premium creators Sam & Gordon Gold. Comes with Hake's COA.
