All of the artwork in this collection is guaranteed 100% authentic and genuine
as created by TVC for King Features Syndicate in London England during late 1967
through 1968. This collection is being offered Exclusively and Only
Here at
www.BeatleBay.com!!! Many of the pieces are very rare,
extreme examples, that seldom surface for sale. There are many examples of
hand painted art cels, hand drawn art cel drawings and even examples of ultra
rare original production backgrounds! Each piece is either hand painted or
hand drawn and copyright King Features Subafilms Limited, London, England UK
1968. This project was headed up by KFS veteran Al Broadax, who
already had a long running hit TV cartoon show of The Beatles during the early
years of Beatlemania simply called The Beatles!
The creation of this
movie and the artwork that followed involved many steps. We will give you
a quick summary of how cels, drawings and backgrounds were created: TVC
consisted of several dozen animators along with a production team. Heinz
Edelmann was the art director and had final say of how each of the Beatles and
each of the characters in the film looked and acted. It was Heinz who
created a master set of characters for each of the animators to use to create
all the drawings and cels from. The process to create a production
art cel is as follows... first the animator would draw the character on a blank
sheet of white paper. These are called animation drawings. Once the
drawing on paper was finalized, the animator would then overlay the
drawing sheet with a sheet of clear acetate (or celluloid sheet) and then using
a fine point black ink pen would outline the character. The animator would
also make notes along the peg hole side of the celluloid sheet which identified
where in the movie this art cel was to be used. Once the outline was
finished, the animator would then turn the celluloid sheet over and paint
in the different sections in whatever colors were to be used for that character.
So a finished art cel has a character that has been created using both sides of
the clear celluloid sheet; the black outline of the character is on the
front side and the painting of the colors is on the reverse side! A very
cool process!! Once the production watercolor hand painted
backgrounds were created, these clear celluloid sheets were overlaid onto
the backgrounds and then filmed. A very tedious process compared to
today's Computer Generated Imaging! The making of an animated film using
hand painted art cels with hand painted backgrounds ended in the 1980s with the
invent of CGI.
Most of these art
cels and drawings
were sold in stores such as Hallmark in late 1969 and during1970 in cardboard
matted 16" x 20" frames which normally contained 1, 2 or 3 art cels or one
drawing. When the film was finished, all of the original artwork
that wasn't wanted and kept by some of the original animators or the production
team, were all packaged for retail sale to the general public.
Whichever cels didn't overlap normally went into the cardboard matting, usually
2 sometimes 3 or more. Adhered to the back of this frame was one of King
Features Subafilms Ltd. Certificates of Authenticity (COAs). These
measured approx 6" x 8" and featured a round gold foil sticker on the bottom
right side of this certificate which stated "ONE OF A KIND ORIGINAL ART From
The Full Length Cartoon Feature The Beatles Yellow Submarine - A Collectors
Treasure". These certificates were printed on parchment paper and are
included in some of the animation artwork in this collection. The matted
prints were then shrink-wrapped and sent out to retail stores such as Hallmark
worldwide. The rarest and most valuable cels and the largest ones and ones
that take up much of the 12" x 16" palette most of these art cels use.
A typical art cel is painted onto a 12" x 16" clear sheet of acetate which
almost always have one of the edges with peg holes for the animators to secure
their piece down. Many original drawings are on plain white paper sheets
that range from 12" x 16" to as large as 16" x 34" and these usually have
alignment peg holes too. There are also handwritten codes along that same
peg hole edge which identified the scene number and frame. We will
translate all of these codes for you in each items' description as much as
possible. Some of the easier codes are NWM for the Nowhere Man sequence;
SOT for Sea Of Time; SOM for Sea Of Monsters; SOS for Sea of Science; SOG for
Sea of Green. Some are even easier as BULLDOG was for the Hey Bulldog
sequences. The rarest and most sought after Yellow Submarine artwork from
the movie are the original backgrounds. The backgrounds were usually hand
painted using watercolor paint. Some original backgrounds are simply
incredible to behold!! Items are arranged for sale by
Animation Cels, Animation Drawings and Animation Backgrounds.
They were all
hand-painted in London England from November 1967 through July 1968 by TVC (TV
Cartoons) for King Features Subafilms Ltd. The
movie premičred July 16, 1968 at the London Pavilion in Piccadilly Circus London
England. All of the Beatles were present during the opening premiere of
the movie. It showed to rave reviews even though the actual Beatles
had little to do with the production of the film. The Fab Four would
stop by the studios from time to time to see how production was progressing, but
didn't participate on the day to day production of the film. The Beatles
voices were originally to be used but because of time constraints, they used
others with similar voices. However at the end of the actual film, The
Beatles themselves are actually shown live, talking and joking for about a
minute before John Lennon counts off "one, two, three, four" and the movie ends
with the song All Together Now!!!
These art animation
cels, drawings and production backgrounds have proven to be a top notch blue
chip investment over the years. Each piece is truly one of a kind artwork
from a by-gone era where movement in cartoons was created by filming 16 hand
painted pictures per second. Today this is achieved using computers and
CGI. Luckily the artwork from this animated feature film was saved
by Beatles fans like you and I back in 1969! ENJOY!

Beatles 1968 original Art Animation Cel of
THE DREADFUL FLYING GLOVE
from the 1968 The Beatles Yellow Submarine motion picture!!!
Offered
is an original art cel from the 1968 major motion picture. The 12.5" by
16" clear acetate celluloid sheet contains a great large image of The Flying
Glove from the All You Need Is Love sequence! This is the part in
the film where the words of the song surround the glove which ultimately defeat
this blue meanie! The song being played is ALL YOU NEED IS LOVE and all
the words from the song surround the Flying Glove; the lyrics from the
first line of the song are "There's Nothing You Can Do That Can't Be Done"; so
the first four words are "THERE'S NOTHING YOU CAN" which happen to be the 4
exact words which are surrounding the Flying Glove on this Art Cel! How
Cool Is That!! This is a fairly large cel measuring nearly 5.5" tall by
nearly 6" wide including the words. The artwork is located dead
center on the celluloid sheet. The art cel itself is in Excellent
condition with vivid colors and no paint loss at all. There are the usual peg
holes along the bottom edge with the original animator's handwritten notations
of the exact scene and sequence this art cel was used in the movie: "7/LOVE
II G.15.".
This sheet does have the usual staple holes that you normally find on these
sheets. Overall a terrific and unique piece of original artwork from
Yellow Submarine!

The Beatles Yellow Submarine motion picture premičred July 16, 1968 at the
London Pavilion in Piccadilly Circus London England. All of the Beatles
were present during the opening premiere of the movie. It showed to
rave reviews even though the actual Beatles had little to do with the production
of the film. The Fab Four would stop by the TVC studio in London
from time to time to see how production was progressing, but didn't participate
on the day to day production of the film. The Beatles voices were
originally to be used but because of time constraints, they used others with
similar voices. However at the end of the actual film, The Beatles
themselves are actually shown live, talking and joking for about a minute before
John Lennon counts off "one, two, three, four" and the movie ends with The
Beatles song "All Together Now"!!!
These art animation
cels, drawings and production backgrounds have proven to be a top notch blue
chip investment over the years. Each piece is truly one of a kind artwork
from a by-gone era where movement in cartoons was created by filming 16
hand-painted cartoons per second. Today this is achieved using computers

This sheet does not have the usual staple holes that you normally find on these

original matting which came with this art cel. The original matting
was falling apart because of the age; we were able to salvage the original
metallic seal which will be included with this lot. The studio
normally placed 2 or more figures together in a frame then stapled the cels
together. Since this image was so large, there was no need to
include additional characters with it. Overall a terrific piece of

from the 1968 The Beatles Yellow Submarine motion picture!!!
Offered
are 2 original Art Cels from the 1968 major motion picture. There are two
12.5" tall by 14.5" wide clear acetate celluloid sheets stapled together each
containing one original hand-painted Art Cel: the top sheet contains a
beautiful hand painted image of The Yellow Submarine. As you may or
may not know: hand-painted Submarines are one of the most difficult Art Cels to
locate as most submarines used in the movie were actually Letra-Set Decals!
Because the submarine was used is so many different scenes in the movie, instead
of hand painting the submarine each time, and to save time, King Features
contracted with Letra-Set of London to supply the studio with decal sheets of
the Yellow Submarine in nearly every possible angle. So to find an
actual hand painted submarine these days is quite a feat! The
submarine art cel itself is a nice size, measuring approx 3.5" wide by almost 2"
tall. The submarine artwork is located just left of center in the
celluloid sheet. The Art Cel itself is in Excellent condition. There
are the usual peg holes along the bottom edge with the original animator's
handwritten notations of the exact scene and sequence this art cel was used in
the movie: "SOM 8
S 11"; the SOM notation translates to the Sea of Monsters sequence.
This sheet does have the usual staple holes in the corners and is still stapled
to the Whale art cel in the bottom left corner. In fact, both of these Art
Cels were purchased together in 1970 from the original owner! They
have since lost the original Certificate of Authenticity but BeatleBay will
include a color xerox copy of that original COA. BeatleBay will also
include their Letter of Authenticity (LOA) too. Overall this is a terrific
piece of original artwork from the movie The Yellow Submarine!
We have photocopied an original Sea Of Monsters Scene 8 original background
piece to use as a display behind both of these Art Cels as both Art Cels are
from the same sequence in the movie! On the bottom edge of the
photocopied background, one can see the SOM notation and Scene 8 notations!
This is the perfect background to display both of these Art Cels!
The second Art Cel included is
of The Whale which measures just under 5" wide by 3" tall. Both the
Whale and the Yellow Submarine display Excellently together in this great Art
Cel setup!
The Whale artwork is located in the center section of the celluloid sheet.
The Art Cel itself is in Excellent condition. There are the usual peg
holes along the bottom edge with the original animator's handwritten notations
of the exact scene and sequence this art cel was used in the movie: "SOM
Sc8 9U"; the SOM notation translates to the Sea
of Monsters sequence, Scene 8.

Sc7 which stands for Nowhere Man Sequence, Scene 7. The John
sheet is marked differently, but fits perfectly with the other 3 Beatles!

The Beatles Yellow Submarine motion picture premičred July 16, 1968 at the
London Pavilion in Piccadilly Circus London England. All of the Beatles
were present during the opening premiere of the movie. It showed to
rave reviews even though the actual Beatles had little to do with the production
of the film. The Fab Four would stop by the TVC studio in London
from time to time to see how production was progressing, but didn't participate
on the day to day production of the film. The Beatles voices were
originally to be used but because of time constraints, they used others with
similar voices. However at the end of the actual film, The Beatles
themselves are actually shown live, talking and joking for about a minute before
John Lennon counts off "one, two, three, four" and the movie ends with The
Beatles song "All Together Now"!!!
These art animation
cels, drawings and production backgrounds have proven to be a top notch blue
chip investment over the years. Each piece is truly one of a kind artwork
from a by-gone era where movement in cartoons was created by filming 16
hand-painted cartoons per second. Today this is achieved using computers
and CGI. Luckily the artwork from this animated feature film was
saved by Beatles fans like you and I back in the day!

Item YSAC103:
The
Beatles 1968 original Art Animation Hand-Painted Watercolor Psychedelic
Production Background from
THE SEA OF MONSTERS
from the 1968 The Beatles Yellow Submarine motion picture!!!
Offered
is an original art animation hand-painted production background from the 1968
major motion picture! Original watercolor backgrounds are as
rare as hens teeth! The original production background pieces typically
weren't saved like the art cels were, plus there were dozens/hundreds of
cels produced for every background created for the movie... they are that
rare!!! This background is no exception and is a terrific
psychedelic original example of hand-painted one-of-a-kind artwork from the
movie we all love!!
This piece came directly from Al Brodax and it’s a really cool hand-painted
production background from The Sea of Monsters sequence! In the
movie this background is utilized where the yellow submarine stops in the middle
of the screen, and a bunch of funny items pop in-and-out of the submarine during
this scene. You can easily locate this background in the scene because there's
a section that looks like a 'Red Fish Hook' on the right side of the background
sheet... if you stand back you'll see where we mean... this is the area where
the camera focuses it's attention during the 10 second stretch in the movie this
background was used. The background measures approximately 17” wide
by 12.5” high and has peg holes attached at the top edge with cloth tape;
The background is marked “MONS” and “SC 8” handwritten in white pencil which
stands for the Sea of Monsters, Scene 8. This
scene appears approximately 37min 45sec into the film and this background was
used for about 10 seconds in the film. The submarine cels that
originally were used on top of this background were quite varied and we’ve seen
several of them over the years. See below for 3 actual stills from the
movie. If you have one of these submarine cels that was originally
used with this background, then by adding this background you'd have what is
called a Master Key-sequence cel/background Setup!! A Master Key Setup is when
an original production background is matted with an original art cel from the
same sequence in the film; they are quite rare and highly sought after by
collectors!
The background is in Very Good+ to Excellent condition. Just right of
center in the piece, there is a small circular blemish about 3mm in diameter…
it’s been painted over by the original artists, but when we checked the scene in
the movie where this background is used, you can actually see the blemish in the
film!! So it’s 100% proof positive this piece was used in the final
production of The Sea of Monsters Sequence # 8! If you look at the last
screen shot we've added below, you can actually see this 3mm blemish on
camera... it's right below the submarine's bottom hatch!!
We will also include an original Letraset Yellow Sub decal art cel with the sale
of this item! The Letraset cel is 2.25" long and on it's own 12.5" x
16" clear acetate sheet... Keep in mind that the value of this lot is the
handpainted watercolor background!! Not in the Letraset Yellow Submarine
art cel!!! The submarine is not a hand painted art cel, it's a decal
that was used by King Features studio at the time so they wouldn't have to keep
repainting the same submarine in the same pose every time a submarine was needed
in the film. So they had these sheets of Letraset Decals made up to
use in the film. It's still a production used art cel and it's still
Very Cool BUT it's not a hand painted art cel.
Below are 3 still shot photos from the actual movie showing this background as
it was used in the production of the film. As you can see, the action
centers around the right center area of the background, right near that 'red
colored hook'...

The Beatles 1968 original Art Animation Cels of ALL 4 BEATLES from the 1968
The Beatles Yellow Submarine motion picture!!!
Offered
is a tremendous opportunity to purchase one of the nicest set of art cels we’ve
ever offered for sale: All 4 Beatles in a Key Setup from the 1968 full
length motion picture
The Beatles Yellow Submarine! This lot consists of 4 separate
acetate sheets and each sheet contains one Beatle art cel from the Nowhere Man
sequence in the movie. All 4 Beatles are from the same sequence in the
movie; this is considered a key setup from the movie and is quite rare to
find multiple cels used together. The Paul cel measures approx 7.25”
high by 2.75” wide; the John cel measures approx 4” high by 2.25” wide;
the George cel measures approx 4” by 2.75” wide; and the Ringo cel
measures approx 5.5” high by 2.25” wide. Each acetate sheet has been cut
down slightly from their original 12.5” x 16” sizes because they were all taped
together to be filmed as one. The sheet sizes are as follows:
the Paul sheet measures approx 14.25” by 11”, the John sheet measures
approx 13.75” x 11”, the George sheet measures approx 13.5” x 11”, and the
Ringo sheet measures approx 13.5” by 10.25”. Paul’s sheet still has
the peg holes along the bottom edge along with the animators’ scene notation
“NW1 Sc7 8P” which stands for the Nowhere Man Sequence 1, Scene 7.
The sheets have been cut down slightly , most likely to fit over the background
they were being filmed with. It’s not at all uncommon to find.
They were originally all taped together for the filming process, as you can
still see the tape residue along the edges of each sheet. This is exactly
how they came out of the studio. This lot was originally sold at Christies
auction in London in the 1990s. Overall each art cel itself is in
Excellent condition. The edges of the acetate sheets have tape
residue, small tears, some uneven cut edges, a small circular tear on the center
bottom edge of Ringo's cel, but these cels were used to make a major motion
picture for The Beatles!! You’ve got to expect some rough edges as these were
physically used to film the movie from. We get numerous requests for original
artwork from Yellow Submarine, but nothing is more requested than all 4 Beatles
themselves! Here is your chance to purchase one of the Holy Grails of
vintage 1968 Yellow Submarine artwork: all 4 Beatles in a gorgeous,
beautifully colored, striking pose!!
We guarantee these items are 100% authentic hand painted artwork from the 1968
motion picture as are all the pieces from this collection, and this item will be
accompanied with a Letter Of Authenticity (LOA) from BeatleBay.

1968 The Beatles Yellow Submarine motion picture!!!
Offered is one of the
true rarities of vintage Yellow Submarine artwork collecting: a full
sized, 12.5” by 16”, Pre-Production Instructional Model Sheet Art Cel of The
Yellow Submarine! This is a very rare “instructional model sheet"
art cel which was used by the animation team at TVC in London England 1968,
during the creation process of the film itself. This cel would have been
created upfront before any of the submarine cels were drawn or painted, most
likely by Heinz Edelmann himself. Each member of the animation team would have
referred to this special one-of-a-kind model sheet art cel, which shows the
exact dimensions of the sub and which colors to paint each part of the sub.
Instructional cels such as this are extremely rare and hardly ever surface for
sale. The submarine itself measures 9.5” long by 5.5” tall.
The acetate sheet is standard sized 12.5” by 16” and has a plain white sheet
stapled to the backside of the artwork. The condition of the art cel is
Excellent. This lot was originally sold at Christies in London and was
featured on the auction catalog’s cover at the time. Here is your chance
to own one of the rarest Beatles Yellow Submarine art cels in existence today!

Production Background of Meanieland including 6
Key Sequence Cels from the 1968 The
Beatles Yellow Submarine motion picture!!!
Offered
is another ultra rarity- this is an original hand painted watercolor production
background of Meanieland including 6 key cels from the 1968 major motion
picture!! This is a completely hand-painted watercolor
production background!! Production Backgrounds from the movie Yellow
Submarine are extremely rare to find, especially when they include the art cels
that were used with them in the movie!!! That makes this item beyond
Rare!!! Truly, an Ultra Rarity and one that rarely surfaces for sale to
the general public!!! Now is your chance to add this incredible piece of
original Yellow Submarine artwork to your collection!!! The exact
scene in the movie is "Attack 1, Scene 10, Background # 9. You will see
the original Production Background Watercolor has the original animator's peg
holes at the bottom and the piece is marked "ATTACK I SC 10
B/9" at the very bottom edge of the piece!!! Also the 6 original
production art cels are marked on the bottom edges too, many of them have "ATT
I" for the Attack 1 sequence; "Sc10" or "Scene10" for Scene 10!!!
It's nearly an impossible feat today to find any original art cels and their
matching production background together!!!
This original hand painted watercolor production background and 6 hand painted
key sequence cels were used twice in the movie, both within 18 seconds of each
other!!! This scene is when The Blue Meanies First Attacked
Pepperland at the beginning of the film! The first scene that this artwork
is used appears at approx. 2 minutes and 45 seconds into the film... after
the Head Blue Meanie gathered all his troupes together, he yells out "ANTI-MUSIC
MISSILE...FIRE!!!", which prompts a Mini Blue Meanie to pull the lever thus
firing the Anti-Music Missile (a large purple and blue colored globe) towards
Pepperland. The globe shoots through the sky and lands directly on
Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band (alias "The Beatles") who are playing on
the bandstand!!! Sgt Pepper's Band are trapped at that point in the movie
inside the globe!!! We have included a short clip from the film which
shows both scenes where this artwork was used.
The first scene this background is
used
is at 2:45 into the film and utilizes 3 of the key cels on the production
background...the blue hole where the globe shoots out of is first covered up by
the large stone stalagmite and is surrounded by 2 large thorned bushes!!
The Head Blue Meanie is counting his troupes and he yells out "Anti Music
Missile", which prompts a Blue Meanie to pull the lever for the first time and
the stalagmite and one thorned bush move left while the larger thorned bush
moves right; thus revealing the blue hole for the first time! This
blue hole is where the large blue & purple colored globe, i.e. the "Anti-Music
Missile" is fired out of. The Head Blue Meanie then shouts out "The
Dreadful Flying Glove" and The Flying Glove then makes a circle around the blue
hole on this production background then exits. The second scene this
background is used is at 3:03 into the film where The Head Blue Meanie now
yells out "Splendid, Today Pepperland Goes Blue-ie... FIRE!", then the Blue
Meanie on the right side pulls the lever again and the purple and blue colored
globe (anti music missile) shoots out of the hole aimed directly at Sgt Peppers
Band in Pepperland!!! This starts the first attack on Pepperland!!!
The hand-painted watercolor production background itself measures approximately
12" by 20"; the background is in Excellent condition except the right edge has a
slight fold and a small edge tear. Each of the cels are on uncut acetate
sheets which measure approx 12.5" by 16". Overall everything is in Very
Good to Excellent condition. Some of the acetate sheets that the art cels
are painted on have some edge damage, but these do not interfere with the art
cels themselves! These are ready to be matted & framed into one incredible
display piece!!!
Additional pictures available upon request.
We guarantee this item is a 100% authentic hand-painted production
background from the 1968 motion picture and each art cel is a key sequence cel
that was used on this background!

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 .

This next section is the 'dark background' section which is 33" wide and was

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...

as you can see, the 'dark section' was filmed as it moved across the 6'
