About the Jon Robert Shaps animation cel collection This item (and and 31 others) was consigned to us by the brother of Jon Robert Shaps, a celebrity photographer in the 1970s and 1980s. This is a truly remarkable collection of animation cels! Mr. Shaps also had an amazing autograph collection, and we auctioned that on January 22, 2012, and at that time we created a webpage explaining who Jon Robert Shaps was and how he acquired that autograph collection, and we urge you to view that page at this link. In addition to collecting signed items, Mr. Shaps collected animation cels (he was able to get a few of them signed by celebrities before his untimely passing). 22 of his animation cels were framed and matted on his walls, and the frames and glass were removed and disposed of, but the 22 matted cels are in this auction (they are items number 2m009 to 2m030). The mats can be opened to see the cels, but one could easily get a new frame and re-frame the matted cels, saving money in the process! Mr. Shaps also had ten cels that were not matted or framed, and those are in this auction as well (they are items number 2m059 to 2m068). This is a wonderful collection of animation cels!
