Description

(Walt Disney Studios, 1988) Original production cel of the title character from Felix the Cat: The Movie, which shows the big-eyed black cat in a full-length pose straddling himself over the rim of a cauldron. The cel, which is marked "165, A, 68," along the top edge, is stapled to a color copy background of a forest. Image measures 3 x 3.25, with overall dimensions of 17 x 11. In fine condition. An appealing production cel of one of animation's earliest and most legendary characters—created in 1919 by Pat Sullivan and Otto Messmer during the silent film era, Felix was the first animated character to attain a level of popularity sufficient to draw movie audiences.
