The Beatles She Said So/I Feel Fine Animation Cels
Five original, hand-colored cells from the first music video ever, The Beatles’ “She Said So/ I feel Fine” by Stephen Verona. The hand-drawn and hand-painted cells are unique (no other copies exist) and this collection of cells comprises both a milestone in music video history and an important step in the history of The Beatles. Original paper cells drawn by Stephen, some hand-colored by John Lennon and each depicting a word from the video. Artist and filmmaker, Stephen Verona, met John Lennon in 1966 where Verona suggested pairing a Beatles song with images and John sent him an acetate version of the working title “She Said So” to start on. Verona created literal cartoon-like “Pop Art” images for every word and part of the song and Lennon later joined him to help refine the idea and even colored several of the cells himself! The finished film was shown at The Museum of Modern Art in New York City and won several awards, including the CINE Golden Eagle. These incredible pieces of original art are individually mounted, framed with a descriptive plaque. 20 x 17”, EX.
