Description: Dorothy Jeakins 2 Original "Catch-22" Movie Drawings 1969 Click image to enlarge Description ?Dorothy Jeakins, two original drawings created during her time working on the Catch-22 movie as the costume designer before she was let go, one of a hand throwing dice (a pair of twos) and one of a hand whose middle finger has become bullets breaking up a pair of concrete twos, both in very good condition. According to the person from whom I acquired the drawings about 25 years ago, who was a personal friend of Jeakins, she was more than unhappy about being removed from the movie and created the exploding middle finger as her reaction to the people that let her go. The drawing with the dice is pencil on board, signed and dated February 4, 1969 in the lower left, about 11 by 15 inches, in very good condition. There are three pinholes along the top of the drawing and three pinholes along the bottom of the drawing. The drawing with the exploding middle finger is ink and black tape on board, unsigned, about 15 by 20 inches, in very good condition. There are a few pinholes along the top and bottom edges of the drawing. I faintly remember that I was told that the black tape signified prison bars and the artist was being freed from an unhappy situation. Dorothy Jeakins was a 3-time Oscar winner for Costume Design but she was also a graduate of art school who once worked as an artist at Disney before being hired as a costume designer. She has been widely considered to be one of most accomplished artists during her time in Hollywood. The two drawings that I am offering show her artistic skill. They are obviously very unusual. Dorothy Jeakins drawings seldom come on the market because most are held in major collections including UCLA, The University of Wisconsin, Madison, and the New York Public Library.
