Original Production douga (animator's sketch) from The Legend of Snow White anime based on the classic Fairy Tale. If you are unfamiliar with animation cels and sketches, they are hand painted or hand drawn frames of animation that were used to make an animated series of film. Each production cel or sketch represents part of the movement process and are hand painted or hand drawn by animators so no two are exactly alike. They're a lot like movie props. :) This is a shot of Snow White as a Child with her Kitten and puppy (called pocket and milk respectively in the English dub) This shot is from the very first episode of the show watchable on youtube here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zR3p9_oI8CA.
It is a single sketch only, no cel, labeled A5. Douga has a fold at the top under the registration holes and some minor paint residue and wear in keeping with handling and the production process. Overall though nice shape and super cute. A great piece for any animation cel collection.
Please note first image is cropped and brightened for detail, second is the full sketch.
