An original multilayer production title cel, background, and title directory from the "Snagglepuss" segment of the Hanna Barbera animated series "The Yogi Bear Show" (1961-1962). Featuring Snagglepuss dressed in Shakespearean attire and bathed in the yellow glow of a spotlight, the hand-painted title cel and background were created at the studio and used during the animation process. The setup is an actual frame of animation that was photographed and appears as the title for the season two episode "Footlight Fright," which aired on December 16, 1961. Measuring 10.5"x12.5" overall, with the cel image measuring 8"x8.75" on a 10.5"x12.5" cel, the piece is in very good condition with light surface wear, minor scratches and subtle surface marks, and adhesive residue to the cel. The cel itself appears to have been restored by a previous owner. The background shows a light scratch along the top edge and a small .5" tear near the top left corner. The rare title card is accompanied by the title directory for the same short which displays minor discoloration and a tear along the left sheet edge.
