I’m helping to liquidate the estate of an old friend of mine and came across a collection of hand-painted animation cels, backgrounds, and original drawings. He kept a stack of Certificates of Authenticity separate from the cels (!!?!!) and I cannot figure out which ones go to which cels, so I am selling most of the cels without COA’s. I do not know what movies most of these came from, but will note the ones that I do have knowledge of. The numbers I have listed are for my filing system, for easier retrieval and are not anything ‘official’ to the cel. Whether I have original hand-painted backgrounds, or where the backgrounds are color-photo-copies, I will note that. He did not have them stored properly and some were/are adhered. I peeled several apart without mishap, then lightly damaged one, so I stopped trying to separate all the layers. Most of those still adhered will probably separate easily, and without damage, but I will leave that to the buyer. I will post as many per ad as there are room for photos and numerically identify the ads, deleting things as they sell and posting all new items in a new ad, which should help to keep track of which ones you’ve already looked at. 20% off any purchase of 10 or more items, otherwise the prices will stay firm the first year (I promised the widow I would commit 5 years to liquidating his collections).

If you are interested, either call or email (no texts). I usually check my computer a few times each day, or you can often reach me quicker by calling the house phone between 7am and 8pm. (click ‘reply’, then ‘show phone number’)
