Lupin III Part 2 "Farewell, My Beloved Lupin" Imposter Goemon and Imposter Lupin Production Cel (Tokyo Movie Shinsa, c. 1977-80). "We have to leave before the police come!" Disguised in the iconic red jacket from Part 2 of the franchise, it's an Imposter Lupin with his fake samurai teammate Imposter Goemon in this original multilayer Lupin the 3rd production cel from the Part 2 finale "Farewell, My Beloved Lupin" of which Hayao Miyazaki had total creative control. The penultimate television program Miyazaki worked on before moving on to feature films exclusively, this would be the last Lupin related project that featured his involvement. The pair of pretenders are featured kneeling over a metal suitcase stuffed full of bands of cash in a scene that can be viewed near the 18:32 mark of the episode and share a combined character size of 8.25" x 5.5" of the hand-painted 12 field cel. The two characters each have their own layer with an individual production code in the top right corner, Fake Lupin and the case appear on the top layer marked C5 while Fake Goemon appears on the lower layer marked A10. The piece is in Very Good condition with some handling and edge wear, including staple holes in the upper corners, light linework fading, with paint adhesion between the cel layers and some minor debris.
