Original Color Model Animation Character Sheet for 'Jungle Jangle'

This is an original hand-painted animation production color model sheet featuring a rhinoceros and a stylized indigenous character. The sheet is painted on a vibrant orange background on paper or thin board, approximately 10x12 inches, though the exact dimensions are obscured by the matting. The artwork features extensive technical notations in ink, including color codes and lead lines (e.g., #20, #30, #10, HR-A, 85-A) used by the ink-and-paint department to ensure consistency across frames. The style is characteristic of late 1960s television animation, specifically identifying the 'Abbott & Costello' series. The character designs utilize flat, saturated colors and bold black outlines. The rhinoceros is depicted in grey tones, while the human character features a brown skin tone, green grass skirt, and a bone necklace. The piece is titled in gold ink on the lower right of the mat: 'ORIGINAL CHARACTER SHEET (COLOR SPEC.) ABBOTT & COSTELLO FILM "JUNGLE JANGLE" BP. 129.' It is housed in a contemporary silver-toned frame with a dark khaki-colored mat. Visible condition appears fair to good; there are some small spots or foxing visible in the upper center and right portions of the orange field, as well as slight waviness to the paper, suggesting it was once removed from a studio binder or peg system. There is a faint graphite signature or mark visible on the lower right of the orange sheet, which may be an animator's or production manager's initials.
