Cels Forum

     I just wanted to mention that you can find those "cel books" 
in the US at a few stores.  I know that in Los Angeles, CA, 
you can find them at Kinokuniya Stationery & Gifts.  I picked 
one up a few weeks ago.  They're made by Kokuyo, the same as 
the ones from Japan.  The size to look for is A-4 Wide.  It's 
important to get the A-4 WIDE clear file, or else your cels will 
not fit (A-4 WIDE size is 10" x 11").
     The 20 page A-4 Wide Clear File by Kokuyo cost $5.70 plus 
tax (8.25%) = $6.17 US total.  (Or you can get them cheaper 
in Japan (about 300 Y plus tax).)  I hope this saves some of 
you some money, so you don't have to order them from Japan.
     Kinokuniya Stationery & Gifts is located in Yaohan Plaza, 
on the second floor (above the supermarket).  Address:

333 S. Alameda St. #200
Los Angeles, CA 90013 

The Kinokuniya Stationery and Gifts in San Jose, CA should 
also have them too.  I'm not sure if the regular Kinokuniya 
Bookstores carry this size or not, but they would probably 
be able to get them.

    Or just stop by your local art supply store and purchase 
a porfolio made of polypropylene, such as one made by Itoya.
    One thing I do is I hang my cel books (the smaller books) 
on a coat hanger in my closet.  That way the cels hang 
vertically.

PS. Anime Link (offline cel dealer) has some cels of Deedlit.  
He also had some cels from Sakura Taisen, but most of them 
sold quite early.
