Upcoming Two Day Animation Art Auction

Hat Tip: Wired


Heritage Auction has an upcoming auction offering a large selection of animation artwork.  This is a slight departure from my usual subject, but I do cover art (and auctions) when I find a story that interests me.




The auction occurs July 1 and 2 at the Ukrainian Institute of America at The Fletcher-Sinclair Mansion in New York city.  ( The Address is 2 East 79th Street.)

The auction starts 11:00 AM central time, with a full preview on June 29-30.


Heritage does offer Internet bidding as well as bidding by phone.

The auction includes Animation Cels featuring Classic Disney films and characters.  Non-Disney characters are also represented including the Beetles, Gertie the Dinosaur, and the Peanuts gang.  (Some of the non-Disney items have very low bids right now.  This could be a good opportunity to purchase these items at a reasonable price, but keep in mind there will be live bidding on these items July 1-2.)


For those interested in vintage movie posters, Heritage's next featured auction consists of a large collection of those.  That auction occurs July 19-20 in Dallas, TX.
