Fractured Fairy Tales Production Cel & Background - ID: ward9347

An original production cel and background setup from the Jay Ward Studios animated series "Fractured Fairy Tales" (1959-1961). Featuring a man carrying a woman across the threshold and into his home, the hand-painted cel and background were created at the studio and used during the animation process. The piece represents an actual frame of animation that was photographed and appears in the episode titled "The Magic Lichee Nut" which aired in 1963. Measuring 9.75"x11.75" overall, with the character image measuring 4.75"x5.75" on a slightly trimmed 9"x11.5" cel, the setup is in good condition with some warping and tape residue on the cel. The background displays pin holes near the corners and edge wear.
