- Tweety has become one of the most beloved characters in
animation since his debute in “A Tale of Two Kitties” in 1942.
- Tweety was created by Warner Bros. Director Bob Clampett.
The idea to create Tweety struck Clampett while he looked at
his own nude baby photo.
- In his first shorts, Clampett had the little bird
featherless and more of a flesh color. But even as Tweety
gained a following and affection in his pictures, the censors
believed Tweety should wear some sort of clothing and made
Clampett add yellow feathers to the now famous bird.
- “Origins of Tweety” includes elements of very rare Tweety
art taken from the Clampett original archives which includes
images from the model sheet, storyboards and a typed
interview.
- The primary print is reproduced with the fine art giclee
process and is then embellished with photographs, a collector
pin, the written word and a hand-painted cel.
- Ruth Clampett dedicates “Origins of Tweety” to her father.
This is the first limited edition signed by her.
