TOM & JERRY (1940-PRESENT) - Set of Four Original Hand-Drawn Comic Strips Signed by Kelley Jarvis and Richard Maurizio - A rare and original set of four hand-drawn Tom & Jerry comic strip panels, produced for international newspaper syndication during the late 1980s and early 1990s. Illustrated by Kelley Jarvis, with three of the strips signed in silver marker by fellow cartoonist Richard Maurizio, these strips were created for and distributed by "Animated Arts! ", a licensed studio working with Editors Press Service (EPS), one of the first syndicates to supply American comic material to newspapers globally.Each strip captures the classic chaos, charm, and slapstick wit that made Tom & Jerry one of the most beloved duos in cartoon history. The characters are expertly rendered in ink, with visible artist annotations including production dates such as "3/18" or "12/14" and copyright marks confirming production years across the strip run. Jarvis's name appears in ink on two strips, with Maurizio's signature complementing three others.These strips were not exclusive to U.S. syndication. Distributed in over 200 newspapers worldwide, including titles across Europe, the UK, Latin America, and Asia, the EPS run Tom & Jerry series brought the iconic cat-and-mouse duo to a truly international readership, many of whom experienced the characters first through print rather than animation.Accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from Animated Arts!, this is an important and highly collectable set of original artwork from a lesser-seen but globally significant chapter of Tom & Jerry's legacy. The lot exhibits some minor edge wear and marks. Dimensions (one strip): 50.5 cm x 19 cm (20" x 7.5")Sold without copyright; see copyright notice in the Buyer's Guide.VAT Status: M

A GEORGE III MAHOGANY SECRETAIRE CLOTHES PRESS IN THE MANNER OF PHILLIP BELL OR HENRY KETTLE, CIRCA 1760 The serpentine panelled doors enclosing three mahogany and oak lined sliding trays, the base with a fall front secretaire drawer enclosing fittings and a leather inset, a machine engraved formica inventory label to the back 'BM 254' 188.5cm high, 111cm wide, 63cm deepProvenance: Burford Priory, Burford, OxfordshireThough there are a number of comparable clothes presses with related distinctive serpentine panels to the doors, the feature of a secretaire drawer seems unusual.For clothes presses with related shaped cartouche panels see Christie's, Style and Spirit, 16th September 2015, lot 597, (£3500 exc. BP) with a paper label 'Henry Kettle, (Successor to Mr. Philip Bell), CABINET MAKER Upholder & Undertaker, at No.23, in St. Pauls Church-Yard, LONDON; and another, Lyon & Turnbull, Fine Antiques, 30th March 2011, lot 260, (£7500 exc. BP), with a paper trade label 'Philip Bell, Cabinet Maker and Upholder, at the White Swan, Against the South Gate in, St Pauls Churchyard London, Funerals Perform`d'.Like their contemporary, Giles Grendey, Bell and Kettle favoured cartouche shaped re-entrant panels and the use of high quality well figured timbers as demonstrated with the present lot.Similar cartouche-panelled doors are first seen on linen presses labelled by the London maker Giles Grendey (1693-1780), then on presses by Philip Bell and Henry Kettle.The serpentine panels of this bureau-cabinet relate to those of a bed, with antiquarian panelled headboard and canopy, acquired for Knebworth House, Hertfordshire in the 1740s and attributed to the Clerkenwell cabinet-maker Giles Grendey (d. 1780). Condition Report: Overall there are some scratches, marks, chips, cracks and abrasions consistent with age and use. Some old minor chips, splits and losses Some minor evidence of old worm, some old repairs The door lock looks original and has one key; the drawer locks are later and have no key The handles to the drawers are likely original There is a plastic inventory number to the interior of one of the secretaire drawers 'RP 378'; the suede inset writing surface is later.Features of this secretaire clothes press such as the choice cuts of timber, carved cornice, re-entrant cartouche shaped panels, original shaped trays and secretaire fittings combine to make this comparable to the work of Bell, Kettle or Grendey.Please see all the additional condition report photographs through the link on the condition report email as a visual reference of condition - they are a vital part of this report. Condition Report Disclaimer
