A matching multi-layer production cel and background setup from the Marvel Studios animated series "X-Men" (1992-1997). Featuring a close-up of Gambit in his fairytale peasant attire, the hand-painted cel and background were created at the studio and used during the animation process. Both pieces create an actual frame of animation that was photographed and appears in the season five episode "Jubilee's Fairy Tale Theatre," which aired on November 16, 1997. Measuring 10.5"x13" overall, with the character image measuring 7"x10.75", the background and cel are in very good condition with the cel stuck to the background. The cel displays minor scratches, surface wear, and light line fade on the surface. The background displays minimal edge and corner wear and light handling-related soiling. Attempting to separate the two layers would result in extensive paint loss and transfer damage to the paint on both layers.
