Comic Mint your best source for rare, kooky, and classic animation art, is pleased to offer fans of the "George of the Jungle Show" this RARE Jay Ward Studio Scene Cel featuring Super Chicken and Fred.
As with most Jay Ward animated cartoons made for television, very few production cels survived. The growing popularity of animation cels, led to the Jay Ward Studio producing a series of hand-inked and hand-painted "Scene Cels” which were sold to collectors and fans at their Dudley Do-Right Emporium on Sunset Blvd during the 1980's. The cel measures 12.5" x 10.5” inches (unframed). The cel has been paired with a color copy reproduction background for presentation purposes, and is issued with a certificate of authenticity.
