COMMENTS
Comic Mint is pleased to offer Disney fans this beautiful vintage production cel of JIMINY CRICKET released by the Disney Studio.
This RARE hand painted and hand inked production cel features a huge image of Jiminy opening his umbrella. The image size is approximately 5" inches wide by 6.5" inches tall.
This is a one-of-a-kind piece that was filmed under the camera, and used in the making of "The Wonderful World of Disney" a television anthology series which screened from 1954 for nearly three decades. These cels were sold at the Art Corner store at the Disneyland Anaheim Resort in the late sixties. The character/cel is in amazing condition for it’s age, as it is rare to have an intact Art Corner Cel.
The Art Corner Label on the backing card is the Official Disney Certificate of Authenticity.
Disneyland Art Corner Store
Cels sold at Disneyland’s Art Corner Shop in Tomorrowland from the mid 1950’s to the late 1960’s. These cels are trimmed, and placed in a small matt against either a lithographic background or a sheet of coloured paper. A gold seal is attached to the back of the matt which is the authenticating sticker.
About the Art Corner Store
In 1955, the year Disneyland opened, in a section of Tomorrowland there was an area now long gone called “The Art Corner” which sold Disney animation cels from films such as The Jungle Book, Lady and the Tramp, 101 Dalmatians, Mickey Mouse Club and cels from various TV programs and shorts. These cels were cherry-picked and selected by studio artists, based on the attractiveness of the character, so only the BEST pieces were allowed out for commercial sale. Every Art Corner Cel was matted and a Gold Art Corner Label attached to the backing.
