LITTLE GREEN SPROUT

Original Production Animation Cel Drawing
Seen on screen in a Television Commercial
for Green Giant Vegetables

Comes with a Charles Scott Gallery COA

"Up in the Valley of the Jolly Green Giant Lives the guy they call the Little Green Sprout.” In September 1972, a mysterious new visitor arrived to the Green Giant’s Valley. Much like the beloved harvest icon, this new character (designed by Leo Burnett) was green and dressed in leaves. He was also pint-sized, to the point where he could easily fit into the palm of the Jolly Green Giant. He’s the Little Green Sprout.

We are not sure which era it is from, but it is classic!  And it's a Key drawing, done by a key animator vs an in-betweener.  Comes with a Charles Scott Gallery COA. 

We'll mount this gorgeous piece of art in an acid-free, 4-ply double paper mat that measures 11" x 14" - so you can just buy your own frame and hang it in your home gallery.  We only use archival/acid-free materials in mounting your artwork.  NOTE: we mat your art immediately upon purchase, so if you wish us to leave it un-matted please message us immediately.

INTERNATIONAL BIDDERS

 

WE LOVE YOU - BUT - ebay will not allow us to send a combined invoice.  We WILL happily refund a portion of the US shipping AFTER your payments - typically $5-$10 US per additional item.  And we will send your items in 1 box.  But ebay sends out your invoices so you must pay those. OR try putting all items in your cart and Buy-It-Now all at once.  Also, we will not do anything illegal – we will not mark items as gifts.  Buyer is responsible for taxes, etc.  Unfortunately with the GSP, we cannot actually see your shipping costs – EBAY hides that from us.

 

ABOUT US

 

As the owner, I have personally been a collector of collections for over three decades. I spent that time educating myself about the fields of items that I collected and have become an expert in animation art as well as various paper collectibles/antiques, pottery, electronics, etc. That three decades of collecting was the genesis of our gallery - a gallery that now has tens of thousands of items. If you look at our feedback you can see that we also use this account to to purchase as much as we sell - so we're always looking for more unique and wonderful items to pass on to you.

 

WE ARE FANATICAL ABOUT PACKAGING

 

So far we've NEVER had an item arrived damaged. We will always make the smart choice to ship to you - the choice that gets it there safe (versus cheap). Our goal is to provide a reliable, safe delivery of your item.  We will not reduce the quality of our packing or shipping.

 

WE RECYCLE FOR THE ENVIRONMENT - so you may find everything from wrapping paper to plastic shopping bags as your packing material. WE NEVER compromise on the safety or cleanliness of your item, so rest assured we WILL get it to you in the shape it left us.

 

OUR ITEMS ARE OLD AND FRAGILE!

We sell antiques.  Our average item age is 30 years old.  In particular animation cels will have some age to them: blemishes such as paint jots, a little dirt, paper stuck to the back of the image, etc.  We try to call out all major faults (we are a bit fanatical about it), but may miss some.  Please look at the pictures closely.
