Film producer (1884–1949) most noted for founding Leon Schlesinger Productions, which later became the Warner Bros. Cartoons studio, during the golden age of Hollywood animation. Colorful original hand-painted animation cel of a Looney Tunes character pointing to a book, 11.25 x 8.5, signed in black ink at the lower left corner: “This is an original painting I used in:—’Looney Tunes’ and ‘Merrie Melodies.’ Leon Schlesinger.” In very good condition, with mild to moderate pigmentation loss and yellowing to the celluloid. Schlesinger’s signature and sentiment remain bold. A scarce piece of animation history.
