Description

Alice in Wonderland Card Soldiers Production Cel (Walt Disney, 1951). The Queen of Hearts' Card Soldiers march through the Queen's gardens in a dizzying procession in this scene from Alice in Wonderland, announcing the arrival of the much-feared royal. Here's a stunning original production cel depicting seven of these cards as they approach, seen at about the 59:18 mark of the film. This is a picture-perfect image of the soldiers in formation, with each holding their heart-shaped spear. The hand-painted, hand-inked 16 field cel features a painted image area of 10.25" x 8.75"! The cel is numbered in its lower right corner with C-79, and it is displayed over a color print of the background from the scene. It would be hard to find a better image of the iconic Card Soldiers than this! The cel has had some professional restoration, including a coat of clear varnish applied over the back of the paint. The piece is matted, with a matboard aperture of 11" x 9.5" and an overall mat size of 17.5" x 15.75". The piece is in Good to Very Good condition, with handling and wear from production use. The varnish applied over the paint has led to some dust and debris adhering to the paint, and there is some cracking in the back of the paint that is not visible from the front. The ink lines show some wear, and the cel shows some rippling.
