Over on eBay, someone is selling a few production drawings<\/a> of Scrappy and Oopy, as well as other art from 1930s Columbia cartoons. The merchant says that they came from the collection of the grandson of a Columbia artist, and has set rather high minimum bids: If you were to snag all of these, it would cost you at least $2,495. Scrappy art is <\/em>exceedingly rare, but that seems overly optimistic for these particular examples.<\/p>\n

Still, it’s nice to see them out there, and I have borrowed the auction images for this post. They’re yet more evidence that nobody worked very hard to give Scrappy a consistent look from short to short or, sometimes, screen to scene. (My favorite is the Oopy close-up at the bottom.)<\/p>\n

These are from later-ish Scrappy cartoons, but I’m not sure offhand which ones. If you know, please tell us.<\/p>\n
