Tom and Jerry Holiday Special #1985
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "The Pains of Painting," Jerry and Tuffy convince Tom that their antics stem from being "underprivileged," prompting him to take them to an art museum in a rare moment of generosity. Inspired by a modern mural, Tom surprises them with a full set of art supplies—only to find himself overwhelmed as the mice transform his home into a chaotic canvas of modernist masterpieces. Art by Harvey Eisenberg, cover by Bill Titcombe, this 1985 holiday special captures a delightfully absurd twist on the classic rivalry, all for the price of 70 GBP.
In "The Pains of Painting," Tom, ever the straight-laced feline, tries a surprising new approach: taking Jerry and Tuffy to an art museum to channel their mischief into something more refined. Inspired by a wild modernist mural, the mice get a full set of paints—and soon, the house becomes a canvas of chaotic creativity. Tom’s experiment in kindness quickly spirals into a whirlwind of splattered color and exasperated cat energy.
