The LION KING "Can't Wait to Be King" Sericel

signed by Disney Animator Chris Sanders

The Lion King, Disney Sericel Features Simba Getting Ready to be KING as he roars. Very cute piece for a boy growing into a man, ugh, Lion. This piece was created in 1994 and is part of a limited edition of 7500. Comes in a Brand New Frame. Frame size is 15x12 inches in size. This piece is complete with the Disney Seal embossed on the cel, in the lower right corner. It also is accompanied by the Original Disney Certificate of Authenticity.  This piece is made to please as it is easily the BEST looking sericel from The Lion King.
 
Piece was issued originally, by Disney as part of the Art of the Lion King Book. It was issued without a background. We added the background because every Lion needs to be in the Jungle. In addition we had the opportunity to get this piece signed by a major Lion King animator. Chris Sanders animated major part of this scene. He signed this for us at the 2012 San Diego International Comic con. 
 
  Brand NEW Frame. Solid Wood. New Glass. Original Disney issued archival Matting with the words The LION KING embossed into the matting. Finished off with dust-paper backing and a wire hanger. 
 
The Lion King is a 1994 animated feature film produced by Walt Disney Feature Animation and released by Walt Disney Pictures. It is the 32nd film in the Disney animated feature canon, and the highest-grossing traditionally animated feature film in the United States. The film focuses on a young lion in Africa named Simba, who learns of his place in the "Circle of Life" while struggling through various obstacles to become the rightful king.
 
Certificate of Authenticity
 
A Sericel is a serigraphy process that involves silk-screening each individual color to the cel, one at a time. Every distinct shade is a separate screen, and a separate pass in the procedure. As a result of this fine art operation, each color is flawlessly reproduced. Sericels are also created in limited quantities, typically 2500 to 5000 pieces and sometimes even 9500. Because of their larger edition size, sericels are the most affordable type of animation art, ideal for the beginning collector.
