Description

Li'l Abner Cartoon (Columbia, 1944). One Sheet (27" X 41") "Sadie Hawkins' Day."
Based on a popular storyline in Al Capp's famous Li'l Abner comic strip, this cartoon tells the story of Sadie Hawkins' Day, in which all the single women of Dogpatch chase after all the single men. If they can catch one and drag him back to the starting line, he's forced to marry her! Only five films were produced for this short-lived cartoon series, as Al Capp reportedly did not care for them at all. This hard to find one sheet had fold wear, crossfold separation, pinholes in the image area, and small tears in the bottom left and in the right border, all of which have been addressed with professional restoration. It's a great piece for any fan of this classic comic strip. Fine/Very Fine on Linen.
