Mel Blanc's son recalls the moment Looney Tunes star responded as Bugs Bunny from a coma: 'I was stunned'
Fox News
Mel Blanc, ″The Man of A Thousand Voices,″ including the legions of Looney Tune stars such as Porky Pig, Daffy Duck, Tweety Pie and that mischievously silly wabbit Bugs Bunny, died in 1989. He was 81.
The voice actor, who starred as Porky Pig, Daffy Duck, and Bugs Bunny – just to name a few – passed away in 1989 at age 81. In his lifetime, Blanc estimated he had mastered at least 900 different accents and dialects during a career spanning more than 50 years. He was also the originator of such lines as Bugs’ ″Eh, what’s up, Doc?, ″ Sylvester the Cat’s ″Thufferin’ thuccotash,″ and Porky’s ″Th-th-th-that’s all, folks." At the time of his death, it was estimated that more than 20 million people heard his voice daily.
On Friday, over 140 lots will be presented by Julien’s Auctions in Beverly Hills, California. All the lots on offer were consigned directly by Blanc's only child, Noel Blanc, a fellow voice actor. Some special pieces include a 14K gold money clip gifted to him by lifelong friend Jack Benny, signed contracts for voicing Bugs, numerous awards and even passports, among others.
