One of a kind, looks worthy of being a professional television animation film cel, or hung today in a children's book or art museum setting. A+ image in our opinion. Of special interest for the strong rockets, space travel and exploration board game and theme.

Excellent technique and aesthetic style, reminiscent of Hanna-Barbera Studio and Flintstones & Jetson cartoons, sure to draw favorable and admiring attention where ever hung. Light old glue reside or tape staining at top edge or across bottom,both easily/ readily matted out if desired by framer. Surface appears as painted, any flaws trivial.
