Vintage Animation Show
621 Fifth Avenue, San Diego, 92101
Cost: Free
The show will feature a gallery of 80 original animation cels works of art
that were used to create all the iconic cartoons from Disney to Hannah Barbara through Warner Bros. Cel animation was a dominant animation technique, particularly in the 20th century, before the rise of computer animation. Cel art is extremely popular and highly sought after by collectors.
All the cels are pretty fun and interesting but one of the cels they will have is from Snow White which is the first animated full-length movie created from cels. It even won an honorary Academy Award (an Oscar) in 1939 for its significance as a pioneering work in animated film. They even made Walt a special Oscar with one full-sized Oscar and seven miniature ones.
