Additional Information

Looney Tunes began as animated short films from Warner Brothers in the 1930s. Tex Avery began working on Looney Tunes in 1935. He created the iconic characters Daffy Duck in 1937 and Bugs Bunny a year later. Daffy Duck’s character was later redesigned and given a personality change by cartoonist Chuck Jones, becoming more insecure and arrogant with a desire for the spotlight. The spunky duck is known for his catchphrase “Youuu’re deththpicable”. The button promoting Daffy Duck for President is one of several presidential campaign buttons featuring Looney Tunes characters, including buttons for the characters Bugs Bunny and Wile E. Coyote
