This special image was first issued by Disney unsigned, but we have used our special contacts within the industry to have Miss Paige O'Hara, the Original speaking and singing voice of "Belle." NOBODY else on ebay or at any other Disney outlets will have this kind of piece with the signature ON THE CEL...NOBODY! With the signature on the cel itself, this piece is infinitely more valuable then any other piece.
BONUS #1: Specially created, one of a kind background. This piece was issued by Disney in 1996, WITHOUT a background. Piece was simply mounted over a white matt-board That wasn't good enough for us. So Tooncity's Municipal Art Department went to work to create this background to match the lines on the cel. Matches perfectly, with the scene from the movie. Printed on acid-free watercolor paper to protect your artwork. Background is NOT available separately, so please Don't ask.
BONUS #2: Paige has personally signed this piece using a PAINT PEN...AWESOME! Piece comes with the Original Disney Certificate of Authenticity. Comes with a printout of the photo of Paige Signing this piece.
BRAND NEW Frame Brand new Solid Wood Frame. New UV Plexiglass, new archival matting. Finished off with New brown dust-paper backing and a wire hanger. This piece is ready to hang out of the box!
What is a sericel? 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. The word Sericel is a contraction of Seri-graphed Cel.
Paige O'Hara (born in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida) is an American Broadway singer and actor. She is most notable for providing the singing and speaking voice of Belle in Disney's Beauty and the Beast, a role she has reprised for all subsequent spin-offs and sequels of the film, including the Square Enix/Disney Kingdom Hearts video game series.
She's currently at the Las Vegas Hilton playing the soap actress in the huge hit "Menopause The Musical." Ironically, I will be making a cameo appearance in a Walt Disney movie as a soap actress. The movie is called "Enchanted" and stars Susan Sarandon. As Disney's animated heroine, Belle, in the critically acclaimed, Oscar-winning, animated film Beauty and the Beast, Paige O'Hara added a Disney classic to a career that has spanned Broadway, opera and concert stages as well as recordings. This was followed up in 1997 with the multi-million selling videos Beauty and the Beast: The Enchanted Christmas and Belle's Magical World. In fact Paige has been nominated for the prestigious Annie Award for her role in Belle's Magical World. The unprecedented success of Beauty and the Beast, nominated for six Academy Awards including "Best Picture", has earned her a world-wide legion of fans both young and old. In addition to a Platinum Record for selling over 1,000,000 copies of the multi-Grammy nominated original motion picture soundtrack (it has since gone double platinum) Paige had the opportunity to sing before millions of viewers world-wide on the 64th Annual Academy Awards telecast. Still in the recording world, Ms. O'Hara saw her debut solo recording released just a few years ago in Europe and the U.S. Entitled Loving You: Paige O'Hara Sings Jerry Herman the CD features such classic Herman tunes as "La Cage Aux Folles", "Loving You" from the film Mame (a duet with husband Michael Piontek) and "It Only Takes A Moment" from Hello Dolly. Paige's latest solo recording, a collection of lullabies entitled Dream With Me includes her singing the title song from "Beauty and the Beast" for the first time, and a duet of "When You Wish Upon A Star" with Jodi Benson best know as Ariel in The Little Mermaid.
