From ha.com:

Originally published in two variations: The first variation of 2,000 sets has three limited edition sericels bound into the book, the second variation of 2,000 sets does not have the three sericels. The publisher needed to reduce production costs for this book when Warner Bros. canceled a large order. As a result, Donovan Publishing decided not to include the sericels half way through the binding process as a cost reduction measure.

Both variations have the first and only hologram Freleng ever designed, on the signature page. This rare folio comes with the signed and numbered book Animation: The Art of Friz Freleng, which describes Freleng's life and career and includes many photos and reproductions of Freleng's work (Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Road Runner, Elmer Fud, Porky Pig, Tweety Bird, Sylvester the Cat, Speedy Gonzales, and many more). The folio also includes a video tape entitled: "Frame by Frame", a cassette tape titled "Words and Music", and a booklet titled "Backstage with Friz and Co". A signed certificate of authenticity from the publishers with hologram is also included. This sets without sericels were originally listed at $595 when first published, and the sets with the sericels originally were listed at $2,500 and sold primarily through art galleries.

Freleng, Friz
