Item Description
Pair of 11.75x16.5" acetate sheets, each w/cel image of about 4.5x6". Each is a full figure image of Roger Rabbit. Sequence numbers are "628" and "738." These are among the first animation cels ever done of Roger Rabbit to help prove the concept of a blend of animation and live-action would work as a feature-length film. Wonderfully expressive images, one depicts Roger clutching at his throat as it appears he is lifted off the ground while other shows him sad and appearing to plead w/unseen character. These were shot and committed to film before it was decided to change the shading and coloring scheme. For instance, Roger appears here as a gray rabbit which was the original intention. It was ultimately decided that he should be colored white so while similar animation appears in the film, these particular cels never made the big screen. Cels are 100% authentic "Roger Rabbit" as produced by Richard Williams and the Disney crew to produce the first Roger effects reel made by Industrial Light and Magic Studios. Exc.
