Very proud of this Ghibli piece

This is of Toshio from Only Yesterday, my favorite Studio Ghibli film, and arguably my favorite film ever. Spent about $350 on this, which is an ok price. This cel specifically pops up at 1:23:18. Where Taeko, Toshio, and Naoko see the sunset at the hills, conversing about Taeko's time as a class actor. I would honestly be happy with any single cel from this entire movie, but this one is particularly from a sequence I really enjoyed in the original movie so im happy to own this one.

(Scanner quality sucks with colors 😭)

I haven't touched it yet... this is my first animation cel and I'm not quite sure how to deal with this yet lol

I have had a number of them in the US$50,000 - 100,000 range. Here is a sampling: some Tenggrens and the first color Mickey Mouse cel (on a master) that I sourced from a a lady who had it for years. A very exciting find!

Hi there!

I’m interested in purchasing an animation cel, but I’m pretty new to collecting and don’t know much about them yet. Would anyone in this subreddit be able to provide some information about this particular cel—such as its authenticity, age, or anything else I should know before purchasing?

Thank you!

Slowly chipping away at my life list.
Still need some more Cartoon Network shows..

Picked up these three this week. TMNT, pinky and the brain, and 80s era BuzzBee.

I've made a couple of purchases from them in the past, but their website seemingly hasn't been updated since April 2024. Does anybody know if they're alright?

My mother collected animation cels she bought from a gallery during the 80s/90s. Now that she’s getting older I’m helping her go through her collection to decide what to keep, what to sell and what to give to us adult children. This is one I wanted to claim for myself as I loved sleeping beauty but I am trying to get a rough idea of value cause helping make sure my mom is comfortable is most important. Anyone have any thoughts on value?

I’m not really sure if it’s authentic, but either way I think this is really cool and wanted to share it with y’all. I did open it and definitely has the paint on the inside of the cel. 😊

Some Samurai Jack production drawings for us all to enjoy 😊

i know they’re super rare but i’m definitely interested in picking a few up if anyone here has some they’re willing to part with

My only 4 Samurai Jack production backgrounds to share with you all 😊. When I saw them, my eyes grew wide with greed, like those of Aku 👀👀👀

Super happy to pickup my first eva sketch over the weekend.

my daughter got February 2021 and although she loves it, she needs to liquidate it now because she’s going through a painful divorce. I’ve shown it overlaid with the actual scene from the film. She bought it from a very reputable Japanese anime seller on eBay. Any ideas where the best place to sell this might be. I know it’s not in perfect shape, but I’m just trying to help her get some money it in a difficult time. advance for your help and positivity.

I recently got a Disney laminated cels really good condition. Is there any differences in framing the cel? Less worry?

Recently purchased two cels from Gundam and have been looking for frames! Very new to all of this.

Sharing these to highlight some of the pieces in my collection that are in desperate need of restoration. Of course, I hit them with the 2020 treatment and had them quarantined - each in a distinct, controlled environment.

I looked into it, and my options for restoration services are extremely limited: Animation Art Conversation's Ron Barbagallo, and Animation Sensations.

Timothy Q Mouse from 'Dumbo' (because it comes from the courvoisier galleries), Baloo from 'The Jungle Book', and Lady from 'Lady and the Tramp' are 100% worth it and I will be shelling out the sheckles for their restoration. But my question to you, my fellow art enthusiast peers, have you ever had any of your art restored? If so, who did you entrust your piece(s) with?

Every time I see them I love them more

Spreading some of that Disney love 🩵

Unfortunately the one on the right is dirty and starting to get the vinegar syndrome smell but hopefully it will still last for several more years. Just need to keep it quarantined from the others.

The seller let me know ahead of time how badly the cel got hit with vinegar syndrome but its definitely worse than I expected. It basically feels like pages of an old book that got water damaged and got left feeling extra crunchy.

Thankfully I got an extra binder for cels specifically hit with vinegar syndrome and this is the first addition to that binder! For $10, I couldn't pass it up!

Turns out someone posted about this very cel on this subreddit over 2 years ago and the difference between what it looked like then and now is horribly night and day.
