Description

Berserk "First Battle" Griffith Production Cel (OLM, c. 1997-98). "He's something else... I bet I could split steel with this sword... But he easily evades each blow, and just uses one arm to handle his narrow blade..." The charismatic leader of the mercenary Band of the Hawk, Griffith, deftly duels with Guts in this incredible hand-painted original production cel from the acclaimed anime classic Berserk. Adapted from the long-running manga series by the late, great Kentaro Miura, Berserk follows the events of the Golden Age Arc, the epic first act of the series' volumes-long story. This is a picture-perfect image of one of anime's most notorious characters, Griffith, in a haunting dramatic closeup measuring 12.75" x 9". This piece is composed of two cels displayed on a printed background for presentation purposes. It can be seen at the 3:15 mark of the third episode, titled "First Battle." The cels are numbered 22 with the frame numbers B1 and the coveted A1E, indicating it was the only cel created for this shot. This fantastic portrait of Griffith shows minor handling and edge wear from normal use in production, and the condition is Very Good.
