Description

This is an original production cel and background setup from the Warner Bros. Studios production The Incredible Mr. Limpet (1964). The hand-painted cel features Ladyfish pulling Limpet to the spawning ground right after he scares the barracuda. It was created at the studio and used during production, representing an actual frame of animation that was photographed and appears in the cartoon. The cel is paired with a hand-painted background from the film, which are extremely rare. The overall measurements of the cel and background are 10.5" x 12.5",10.5" x 16" respectively, and the image itself measures 4" x 10.25",10" x 15.5" on the cel and background respectively. The setup is in very good condition with paint ripple discoloration in Ladyfish and cracking in the white of Limpet's eye. Professional restoration is available, please ask for more information.
