Taken from the 1942, Bob Clampett-directed classic, “Birdy and The Beast,” the image of Tweety shown here was how he first appeared before Warner Bros. insisted he be “clothed,” a solution achieved when Clampett, who created Tweety, decided to line the little canary with yellow feathers.

“Birdy and The Beast” is a hand-painted cel and background, produced by Bob Clampett Animation Art.
