Description
Tom and Jerry Plate
This Entertainment Collectible is a mint condition 9" porcelain collector plate featuring Hanna-Barbera cartoon characters, Tom and Jerry.
Created exclusively for the WB Studios Stores in 1997, it is a limited edition (#135 out of 2,500) with the Certificate of Authenticity on the back.
Tom and Jerry, created in 1940, is a series of animated short films depicting the constant comedic rivalry between cat and mouse.
Tom uses everything he can get his hands on (firecrackers, hammers, etc.) to trap Jerry, and Jerry cunningly retaliates.
Although continually at odds with each other, the two do share brief moments of camaraderie. Such a moment is captured on this plate.
The plate's telltale artwork is based on the first episode of the series which was titled "Puss Gets The Boot".
As their 80th Anniversary approaches, this memorabilia makes an excellent gift for collectors and Hanna-Barbera enthusiasts.
