Autographed Limited-Edition Framed Print: Hand-Signed by Art Clokey (Gumby & Pokey Coca-Cola Advertising Art)
This entry showcases an authentic, primary-source piece of American animation history, claymation artwork lore, and classic corporate advertising ephemera: an official limited-edition fine art print produced for The Coca-Cola Company, hand-signed and hand-numbered by Gumby creator Art Clokey.
A trailblazer in 20th-century stop-motion clay animation, Art Clokey (1921–2010) brought endless joy to generations of television viewers through his beloved clay creations Gumby and Pokey. Originally debuting in the 1950s, Clokey’s imaginative characters became enduring icons of American pop culture. In the 1990s, The Coca-Cola Company commissioned a special fine art campaign titled "Always Friends," bringing together Clokey's claymation figures with the legendary "Always Coca-Cola" marketing campaign.
Titled "Always Friends," this high-quality color lithograph depicts Gumby standing beside his loyal horse companion Pokey against a rich crimson background, accompanied by the classic Coca-Cola emblem and campaign slogan. Professionally presented in a custom wooden frame with double archival matting, the display features an official Coca-Cola Animation Art Certificate of Authenticity mounted on the reverse backing.
In the lower left artwork region beneath Pokey's hooves, Art Clokey has personally hand-signed and numbered the print in black ink:
"Art Clokey / 199/2000"
The Coca-Cola Certificate of Authenticity mounted to the reverse is additionally signed by corporate representatives and Art Clokey, confirming this piece as number 199 in a limited edition of 2,000 worldwide.
Preserved in fine, ready-to-display archival condition within its original wooden frame, featuring vibrant red color saturation, sharp typography, clean acid-free matting, and a bold autograph, this framed artwork serves as an essential centerpiece for animation collectors, claymation archivists, and vintage Coca-Cola advertising displays.
