HOW ARE CELS VALUED?? WHY ARE SOME WORTH MORE THAN OTHERS?? (Tue Aug 20 20:24:02 2002 )

OK, I have not been collecting cels for very long. 
 In fact, I have been collecting them for a little 
over 2-3 months and just invested a LOT of money 
for one cel (which I absolutely love!).  Now, I 
have a quesitons . .  .

What types of cels are normally the most valuable? 
 I know, I know . . . it is all a matter of 
opinion, but statistically, which would most 
people pay for more than others?

From what I read, Portrait Cels (or "A" cels) are 
worthe the most or considered to be superior over 
any other kind, especially if it is made by the 
key animator.  Would pan cels be worth as much or 
considered "inferior" to a standard size cel?  I 
used to think that they were just scraps work 
which were drawn out by the animators in order to 
think up of how to draw out a scene.  And what 
about the kind featured in magazines and art 
books?  I would assume these would be worth more 
than any other cel since they wer hand picked byt 
he creators, right?  

What are your views and opinions about the way 
cels are valued?
