What Exactly Is A Production Cel, And Why Should You Start A Collection?
An animation production cel is the piece of plastic with the drawing of the characters on it ACTUALLY used as A FRAME you see in the cartoon. The artists draw thier outline on the front of the cel, then ink in the color on the back. Owning a Production cel is is to own a piece of cartoon history. So if you love cartoons (In this case a HUGE Animaniacs fan) You will NEVER be complete without a cel if you are an Animaniacs fan. So set aside collecting those plush dolls of Yakko Wakko and Dot, And save up for some of these ONE-OF-A-KIND pieces. It's the closest you'll ever get to owning something of Animaniacs (Or any cartoon)!
"De-Zanitized" Cel Featuring Yakko, Wakko, Dot And Dr. Scratchansniff SIGNED BY VOICE TALENT 1993
Here, I have an amazing cel from the pilot episode "De-Zanitized". It has Dr. Otto Scratchansiff, Yakko, Wakko And Dot on it. It is also signed by Rob Paulsen (Yakko & Dr. Scratchansniff), Jess Harnell (Wakko) and Tress MacNielle (Dot). It is quite large in size and I notice in the episode Yakko is cut off when it is watched on TV. It is complete with certificate of authenticity! I got this for an EXELLENT price. I found this on eBay and it was $450. I asked the seller if he could lower that price to $200 and he actually accepted the offer! How nice of him was THAT.
Warner Brothers...The Place Where Some Of The Best Cartoons Were Made.
Helloooo Nurses! Here I will be keeping a blog about all the cels I collect. As I am starting this blog, I only have 2 production cels. But this number will be growing over the months. I search for the best deals and ask for better prices. So look around at my collection! This blog does NOT contain limited edition cels or anything that is not an original production cel. NONE of these cels are for sale so if you're looking to buy, this isn't the place to be. But feel free to take a look!
