Rocky and Bullwinkle Show, Original Art, framed

Description

Created by Jay Ward and Bill Scott, The Rocky and Bullwinkle Show was an animated series that ran from 1959-1964. Geared towards children, the adults in the room quickly were laughing as well. It was, and still is, a fine example of political and social satire.

We have an original piece of artwork featuring a variety of characters from the Bullwinkle and Rocky series; including characters from the Dudley Do-Right segments. The piece pays homage to the Kenner Products Company,  the company responsible for much of the toy merchandise created as tie-ins to the show. The characters are aboard a steamboat, flying under the guidon of Bullwinkle.

The boat named the S.S. Albert Steiner. Albert Steiner was one of the founders of Kenner Products Company. Kenner was a pioneer is television advertising and was the maker of classic toys like the Easy Bake Oven, Play Doh and Spirograph. They also produced a great deal of Bullwinkle and Rocky Show related toys. We do not know who the artist is.

Excellent, Bright and Colorful!
