  Item YSAC003:  An Incredible Beatles Yellow Submarine Original Art Animation Hand Painted Watercolor Background of The Sea of Monsters from the full length motion picture The Beatles Yellow Submarine!!!   This background measures approximately 74" wide by 11" high.  That's right!! It's over 6 feet wide!!!  Just the size of this item makes it very special and highly desirable!  This is an incredible piece PLUS it's has 3 Blue Meanie Monsters painted right into the background!!!  Very, very rare!!! This background is made up of 6 separate pieces: there is a left side and right side to this background bottom.  The left side piece measures approx 50" wide by 12.5" high and has 2 monsters painted into the background;  the right side bottom section measures approx 24" wide by 9.5" high and has one blue meanie monster painted into the background;  The first photograph below shows both of the sections together.  The very colorful blue, orange, red and purple multi-tiered platform near the left center is a separate section which was taped onto the bottom left section.  Next, is a  large 12" by 33" dark section background which was used to film this entire background scene!! As the camera filmed the bottom section and panned right across the bottom background, this 'dark background' section was placed behind the bottom sections and was filmed moving right at a slower speed than the bottom section.  So this 'dark background' section was, in effect, used to film the background matching exactly to the entire 6' bottom section of background!!!  It's very cool to find a section of original background that you can watch the entire background being used and for such a long period of time!!! This background was used for approx 40 seconds in the movie!!  That is a long time especially for a cartoon!!!  We also found that the far right bottom section of background was also used in another scene in the movie too- this 2 foot section on the right, which has a monster painted into the background, was used again later in the movie in a completely different scene!  This also gave the film a great 3-D effect.  So what we are offering is the entire background of the first Sea Of Monsters scene in the movie.  If you have the DVD of the film, this scene starts at approx 34:30 and ends at approx 35:10; this is nearly 40 seconds from the entire film- a very long time!!!    The other 2 sections included here are shown at the very beginning of this Sea of Monsters background. If you watch the film you will see these sections appear.  This is by far, one of the most elaborate backgrounds ever offered for sale!!! It is entirely hand painted.  There are many scene notations along the edges of these background sections. There are also pegholes along the edges too.  In our photos below, you will see one photo which shows each of the 6 sections apart.  The rest of the photos progressively show how the pieces were used in the film.  Please ask if you have any questions.  These are guaranteed 100% original production backgrounds actually used in the movie. Overall the sections are Very Good+ to Excellent condition.  There are some fold marks as the setions were folded for storage long ago.  There are no major condition issues with the pieces though.  The colors are still very bright and vivid with no fading!!  The photographs do not do the pieces justice as they are much more colorful, vivid and impressive in person!!!  They were hand-painted in London England in 1968 by TVC TV Cartoons for King Features Subafilms Ltd.  Overall, condition is excellent on this item!  This item will be accompanied by a BeatleBay Letter of Authenticity (LOA) guaranteeing this item is a 100% original art animation production background, hand painted in London England by TVC TV Cartoons  and used in the actual production of the 1968 United Artists  full length feature film The Beatles Yellow Submarine.  Price: serious offers please.

The next photo shows both bottom background sections together... these are 6' wide...

 

next is a close-up of the left side bottom...

  

next is a close-up of the right side bottom...

 

This next section is the 'dark background' section which is 33" wide and was used behind the entire 6' section as it's entire background...

these next 2 sections were used in the very beginning of the SOM scene...

 

The next photo shows all 6 separate sections...

this next photo shows how the background section was filmed...
