Forbidden Planet (MGM, 1956). Animation Art
<B>Forbidden Planet (MGM, 1956).</B></I> Animation Art (12.5" X 30"). The monster from the Id - the representative repressed fury of the extinct super race of the Krell, was animated by the Disney studio in one of the most, if not <I>the</B></I> most, impressive special effects sequences in a 50s science fiction film. <I>Forbidden Planet</B></I> set the bar high for all other films of its genre with all its top-notch effects and great story, but the Id sequence really stands out as a brilliant piece of work. It was animated by Joshua Meador and his team who used the innovative technique of shooting directly from the original graphite drawings. Offered here is one of these hand-drawn animation frames, showing the Id Monster destroying one of the Earth ship's crewmen. The piece has been signed by Bob Trochim. There are pieces missing from the top left corner and left border, some chipping on the top and bottom borders, and a right corner bend. None of these defects affect the 11" X 13" image area. Here is a once-in-a-lifetime chance to own a unique piece of science fiction and animation history. Fine.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Flat Material, Large (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
