Tom pencil test (Tom & Jerry)

I haven't posted a classic pencil test in a while.  Here for your inspiration is a scene from Hanna Barbera's  MGM Tom & Jerry cartoons. Not sure which of the regular T & J animators did this scene :  Irv Spence, Ed Barge, Ken Muse, Ray Patterson. (or another ?)   Enjoy.

  1. The animation was done by Ken Muse. In my opinion, he drew the definitive Tom! Thanks for posting. I have some of the original pencils for this..nice to see them moving.

  2. He has Ken Muse's signature pointy ears, posey action, good third dimension, and three bulbs.

    I will admit, the lips fooled me for a second into thinking it was patterson.
