AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
From: Candy Candy, Episode 33 (1976)
This piece is an authentic original one-of-a-kind Japanese animation cel, hand-painted by studio artists at Toei Animation and used directly in the creation of the anime Candy Candy.
As an original production material, this artwork is unique, with no duplicates in existence.
Created for internal studio use under the direction of Toei Animation during the original broadcast production period of Candy Candy in the mid-1970s.
A Certificate of Authenticity will be included with your purchase.
This original animation cel features Candice White, the beloved protagonist of Candy Candy, captured in a gentle and expressive scene characteristic of the series’ warm storytelling and classic shōjo animation style. Production materials from Candy Candy are highly sought after due to the series’ enduring popularity and the scarcity of surviving hand-painted cels from this era.
This item is presented interleaved with MicroChamber paper, an archival material used to protect artwork by reducing harmful acids and paint fumes which damage animation cels over time. We are currently the only seller in Japan offering anime cels presented in this manner.
Please note that this is a vintage item. Despite careful storage, age-appropriate wear or other minor imperfections may be present. Buyers are encouraged to examine all images carefully prior to bidding.
Important Condition Note:
Due to age-related adhesion, the cel is attached to the paper. The item will be shipped as-is. Professional conservation is recommended if separation is desired.
Medium:
Original animation cel (ink and acrylic paint on celluloid)
Original background (gouache on paper board)
This item is offered unframed by default. Framing is available upon request for an additional fee.
Artwork Size:
Cel: 26.5 × 23.0 cm
Background: 36.3 × 25.5 cm
Size with frame: 41 × 30.5 × 1.5 cm
Condition: Good
(Colors on both the animation cel and background remain bright and well preserved. There is slight yellowing of the paper due to age. Staples securing the cel and background together are present, as originally used during production.)
Set Includes:
1 original hand-painted animation cel
1 original hand-painted background
Shipping:
Your item will be shipped protected in a hard clear case to avoid any bending.
Tracking included. Optional insurance available at additional cost.
Seller's Story
Japanime Art Gallery is a Japan-based art gallery specializing in authentic anime and manga production art and historically significant collectibles.
We primarily curate original animation cels, original drawings, and production materials created during the golden era of hand-drawn Japanese animation, from the 1970s to the 1990s. In addition, we carefully select rare posters, official reproduction artworks, reproduction manuscripts, and related materials that represent the history and cultural context of anime and manga.
All works offered by Japanime Art Gallery are selected based on our independent curatorial standards, with a strong emphasis on authenticity, historical background, cultural significance, and preservation condition. Even when offering reproduction works, we only handle officially produced, exhibition-related, or limited-distribution items that hold genuine collectable value.
Our mission is not simply to sell artworks, but to elevate anime and manga art as a recognized and respected category within the global art market, and to preserve and pass on its cultural value to future generations.
We see ourselves as long-term custodians of anime and manga art, responsible for preserving, contextualizing, and introducing these works to the world as cultural and artistic assets.
