Baby Bottleneck - 1945 Edition # 265/500 Clampett Animation Art Seal Certificate of Authenticity from Bob Clampett Animation Art Triple Matted (approx. 12" x 16") In 1985 the Clampett family established the Bob Clampett Animation Foundation and began selling limited edition animation art taken from Bob’s original drawings. Baby Bottleneck is a 1945 Warner Brothers Looney Tunes (reissued as a Blue Ribbon) theatrical cartoon short released in 1946 and directed by Robert Clampett and written by Warren Foster. The cartoon opens with an overworked stork (a clear Jimmy Durante reference) getting drunk in the Stork Klub. T is an emergency delivery in which inexperienced pea-size-brained friends take the babies to their parents. As a result, babies are getting sent to the wrong parents (such as a baby Hippopotamus to a Scottish Terrier, a baby alligator to a pig and a baby skunk to a goose). To clear up the confusion, Porky Pig is brought in to manage the factory, with Daffy Duck as his assistant. The babies are seen going through a conveyor belt (to the tune of Raymond Scott's famous "Powerhouse") and getting sent by various animals, while Daffy mans the phones (making quick references to Bing Crosby, Eddie Cantor and the Dionne Quintuplets). When a stray egg is found without an address, Porky decides to have Daffy sit on it until it hatches. However, Daffy (nor Porky, for some reason) refuses to sit around on top of an egg. Porky chases Daffy around the factory (complete with an imitation of Porky by Daffy), until they wind up trapped on the conveyor belt. The belt winds up stuffing both of them into one package (with Porky as the legs and Daffy as the top half) and send them off to Africa, w a gorilla is waiting for her arrival. When the gorilla looks at the "baby," Porky peeks through the diaper, causing the gorilla to cry on the telephone to a call-in therapist.
