  1. Wow, these look good. The top one is particularly striking; I never realized how much texture went into the Queen's gown.

    1. That's what I like about cels. You really get a good look at the actual artwork from the film.

  2. I would die to own any of these. I'd love to eventually own animation cells, especially ones from Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.
