the series of 6 or 7 repros as entirely done by 
hand (both lines and paint) and taking 3-4 days 
for an artist to produce (which is why they were 
asking 200,000 to 320,000 yen for the cels).  I 
also thought that the site said that 150 copies 
of each cel were destined for the U.S., although 
I can't imagine that big a market for them at 
those prices.  Perhaps I'm mistaken (in my memory 
or translation).  
Good luck in your your bidding, Yann.
