    What is a sericel?
    A Sericel
    is a serigraphy process that involves silk-screening each individual color to the cel, one at a time. Every distinct shade is a separate screen, and a separate pass in the procedure. As a result of this fine art operation, each color is flawlessly reproduced. Sericels are also created in limited quantities, typically 2500 to 5000 pieces and sometimes even 9500. Because of their larger edition size, sericels are the most affordable type of animation art, ideal for the beginning collector. The word Sericel is a contraction of Seri-graphed Cel.
    BIO: Margaret Kerry (born Peggy Lynch, circa 1930, Los Angeles)
    is an American actress, motivational speaker and radio host best known for her 1953 work as the
    model for Tinker Bell in the Walt Disney Pictures animated feature, Peter Pan.
    Kerry answered an audition call during the planning stages of the film. The audition, supervised by Disney animator Marc Davis, required her to pantomime the motions that would eventually be animated as Tinker Bell, such as preening in a mirror at her feet. She won the audition and spent the next six months at the Disney Studios on a mostly empty soundstage pantomiming the role on film. The studios provided props as well, notably a giant keyhole mounted on a stand as well as a pair of giant scissors, later used in the scene in which Tinker Bell became trapped in a jewelry box.
    Kerry also provided the basis of the red-haired mermaid in the Neverland lagoon scenes, with spoken lines.
    Since Disney released the film at about the time Marilyn Monroe had begun to make an impact, an urban legend immediately sprung up attributing the role to her.
    While still a teen, Margaret Kerry gained a role as "Sharon" in one of the very first network sitcoms, The Charlie Ruggles Show on
    ABC-TV. The show's farewell episode after its five-year run featured Sharon's wedding and honeymoon, a major media event.
    A voice over talent with a repertoire of twenty-one dialects and forty-eight character voices, Kerry provided the voices (and lips) for characters on 260 episodes of the groundbreaking children's television show, Clutch Cargo, including major characters "Paddlefoot" and "Spinner". She also provided numerous voices and live-action lead-ins for The New 3 Stooges and Space Angel animated series for Cambria Productions.
    Autograph was obtained in-person at a paid personal signing. Authenticity is GUARANTEED.  On signed pieces the signature may vary slightly from image pictured. We are experts in dealing with Disney American animation cel art. We evaluate cels like Art Corner pieces from Disneyland.
