HISTORY: Tweety Bird made his debut in the Warner Bros. cartoon “A Tale of Two Kitties” Nov. 21, 1942, and since has been a favorite with young and old. Finally, in Tweetie Pie (1947), he matched wits with Sylvester Pussycat and history was made in the cartoon world. That cartoon became the first from the Warner Bros. Studio to win an Oscar. Tweety was cast as the pet of an elderly woman named Granny, who never suspected what a little stinker he was. He was never again seen without Sylvester, and seldom without Granny. Tweety became a comic book character in the late 1940s, when a "Tweety & Sylvester" series was added to the Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies Comics title. In 1952, the pair got their own comic, which ran until 1984, with a brief gap in the early 1960s. Today, he makes regular appearances in the revived Looney Tunes title. The Tweety & Sylvester series is among the few to become more popular after going out of regular production. Fueled by televised reruns of their old cartoons, public interest in the characters has soared. For that reason, when Warner Bros. started its TV network and went looking for Saturday morning stars, the cat and bird were the only ones from the old crew to be featured in a new series, Sylvester & Tweety Mysteries. In this series, along with Granny, they solved baffling crimes. Tweety appeared with the rest of the Looney Tunes crew in Space Jam, and has always been big with the T-shirt and lunchbox crowd. In 1998, he and Sylvester were the subject of a U.S. postage stamp.
