The three-day sale features more than 1,500 rare film and television lots, with Day 3 spotlighting a collection of more than 200 original animation artworks from the cartoons that shaped childhood across generations.
Among the many animation highlights heading to the auction block is an an original multi-cel production setup on a fine art giclée pan background from Nickelodeon's beloved animated series, SpongeBob SquarePants, showing SpongeBob and Patrick in the Jellyfish Fields. SpongeBob SquarePants made its Nickelodeon debut in 1999 and quickly became a global phenomenon. Notably, the series utilized traditional hand-painted cel animation only for its first season, making surviving productions increasingly rare and sought after. Sourced directly from the studio archive and carefully preserved, this example carries an estimate of $1,000 – $2,000.
