ABOUT THE IMAGE: The romanticism of adventure is the name of the game, in this limited edition cel from award winning Warner Bros director Friz Freleng. Set in a beautiful and dramatic medieval castle, our hero Bugs Bunny shows that rapscallion Daffy Duck the literal edge of his rapier-like with. As Bugs denudes Daffy of his plumage, he truly knows that "...Swashbuckling is as swashbuckling does...Doc!"

This limited edition cel began with a drawing by Friz Freleng. The master line image was then silkscreened onto an acetate sheet (or "cel") along with the Warner Bros. Masters Collection/Friz Freleng seal. Each cel was then expertly hand painted on the reverse side. The original background was reproduced using a four-color lithography process on acid-free paper. The edition number was hand-inked on each cel in an edition size of 750. Finally, Mr. Freleng approved each cel with his signature.
