Hey gang!
As some of you know, I collect animated cels from cartoons based on videogames. Well, one of my "Holy Grails" was an animated cel from the Earthworm Jim cartoon series. But, when I got it, imagine my surprise to find not 1, not 2, but *3* pre-production pencil sketches! These are the original paper drawings used as rough models that the cels are drawn then painted over.
Anyway, take a look:

EJW and Peter Puppy explode out of the water! Size: 12.5 by 10.5 inches

EWJ alone in the water, talking. Size 12.5 by 10.5 inches

Oh no! It's Jim's evil twin, "Evil Jim!" Smaller sketch on 8 by 10 inch sheet of paper.
Anyway, framed they'd make a heck of a conversation piece above any retrogaming collection. Or, if you're a fan of EWJ. Or if you'd just like something different in your collection. Because of the uniqueness of each one of these, I'm asking for $20 each, which includes shipping. Would be willing to sell all 3 for $50. Could be interested in a trade, but really would rather sell. PM if interested. Paypal, money orders, personal checks happily accepted. Thanks.
