BONUS #1:
We have enhanced this piece with a
FREE Complimentary Color Background
. During the 1980s it was customary for Disney to release it's sericels without backgrounds. Artwork was simply framed over a white matting background. Toon-city has gone to the extra effort to have an artist re-create a background-painting from which Color reproductions are created. The color copy background is presented as Complimentary to the purchaser of the cel, as a gift, not part of the purchase.  Purchaser has the option to display their artwork with or without the FREE color printed background as they are only paying for the cel.
Backgrounds are NOT for sale separately. If you want this background then you will need to buy this cel.
BONUS #2:
This cel is signed by Marc Davis, who is one of Walt's GREATEST Animators.  Marc is a historic animator, who is renown for contributions to the Disney style, we all know and love.  Marc's Disney career started in the 1930's on Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. As we have multiply pieces in stock, the image pictured is only representative of the actual signed piece the buyer will receive. Signature's will vary slightly, as no two autographs can be identical.
This listing is for one sericel, 2 Certificates of Authenticity and a Free Complimentary background.
BIO
: Marc Fraser Davis (March 30, 1913, Bakersfield, California – January 12, 2000)
was a prominent American artist and animator for Walt Disney Studios. He was one of Disney's Nine Old Men for his knowledge and understanding of visual aesthetics, the famed core animators of Disney animated films.
Marc was one of a limited number of Premiere Disney Animators. Walt Disney called them his nine-old-men. Which is a comment to-wards their wisdom and creativity because he trusted them with all of the animation as he got involved in other projects. Marc's career at the Disney Company encompasses 50 years of creativity.
As a Feature Animator starting in the 1930's he developed the characters of Snow White and Bambi & Thumper.  During the 1940's he became the man to goto when drawing female characters such as Alice and Cinderella. In the 1950's he drew Tinker bell for Peter Pan. He finished his animation career at Disney by drawing Briar Rose & Maleficent for Sleeping Beauty and Cruela de Vil for 101 Dalmatians.
After retiring from feature Animation in the 1960s he moved over to WED (Walter Elias Disney) imagineering which was the division in charge of creating all of the Disney theme park attractions. He used his artistic talents to integrate his animation skills into the physical world. He was integral in creating and developing Disneyland attractions like the Pirate robots in Pirates of the Caribbean & Ghosts in The Haunted Mansion with their Audio Animatronics."
What is a Sericel, you ask?
A Sericel
is a serigraphy process that involves silk-screening each individual color to the cel, one at a time. Every distinct shade is a separate screen, and a separate pass in the procedure. As a result of this fine art operation, each color is flawlessly reproduced. Sericels are also created in limited quantities, typically 2500 to 5000 pieces and sometimes even 9500. Because of their larger edition size, sericels are the most affordable type of animation art, ideal for the beginning collector. The word Sericel is a contraction of Seri-graphed Cel.
