In 1929 Disney animators Hugh Harman and Rudolf Ising found themselves unemployed when Universal Studios took Oswald the Lucky Rabbit away from Disney. They formed an animation outfit of their own. Their sample cartoon, titled The Talk-Ink Kid, was designed to show how well they could handle sound. (The fact that their studio name, "Harman-Ising" was suggestive of good sound was a happy accident.) Leon Schlesinger sold Warner Bros. on the idea of doing sound cartoons, if only as a way of promoting their vast music library. They stipulated in those early years that each cartoon must highlight one or more of the songs they owned. Warner would release cartoons produced by Schlesinger, and Schlesinger would farm out the actual work to Harman-Ising. Many of the gags were lifted from the old Oswald cartoons Harman and Ising had worked on at Disney. In fact, the name of the series itself, Looney Tunes, was a blatant swipe of Disney's Silly Symphonies. The first of the Looney Tunes was Sinking in the Bathtub (1930). In 1933, Harman and Ising left Looney Tunes in a dispute over money, and went to work for MGM. Several animators were promoted to director of Looney Tunes, including Isadore "Friz" Freleng who introduced such classic characters as Sylvester Pussycat and Speedy Gonzales. Porky Pig became popular in 1935, which was also the year Tex Avery came to work for Looney Tunes. That's when the break with the Disney style really happened. Avery took on a couple of animators who later became Looney Tunes directors in their own right — Chuck Jones and Bob Clampett — and animation has never been the same. That triumvirate is responsible for Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Tweety Bird, Marvin the Martian, Road Runner, Wile E. Coyote, Yosemite Sam, Pepe LePew, and Elmer Fudd. These are the styles of Looney Tunes Character body jewelry that we currently have available. More may become available at a later date, so check back!
