The pictures show views of the (2) ©1995 McDonald's NBA Basketball Player & Looney Tunes Character Advertising Items in this lot. These had been acquired from an Artist that worked on the artwork to produce them. The placemat was the press proof that was inspected before all of the others were printed. The Artist had saved many of the proofs in portfolios. These two items were from an advertising campaign combining NBA basketball players and Looney Tunes cartoon characters. It was called ''NBA - LOONEY TUNES ALL STAR SHOWDOWN''. Included here is the placemat press proof and one of the unused french fries boxes. The promotion had matching drink cups and french fry boxes. The box included here features Charles Barkley and the Tazmanian Devil (Taz). Porky Pig was used as a Referee and Tweety Bird as a Reporter. The combinations (all seven are pictured on the place mat) included the following: Shawn Kemp - Daffy Duck Charles Barkley - Tazmanian Devil Larry Bird - Sylvester Cat Michael Jordan - Bugs Bunny Patrick Ewing - Yosemite Sam Larry Johnson - Wile E. Coyote Reggie Miller - the Road Runner The backs of the fry boxes have some additional information on the players and characters. To judge the sizes, the placemat measure about 14'' x 11''. Both of these are in mint unused condition as pictured. |
