Cel

Create by Larry Leichliter, this scene, a cross dissolve: the reality of poolside at Peppermint Patty's home and Snoopy's visions of enjoying a root beer or two at this lovely café on Saint Germain in Paris. This limited edition 12 field cel is accompanied by a signed giclee print of Mr. Leichliter's Key Pose Model Sheet for Snoopy, created in the traditional format of Bill Melendez's studio, on a legal sheet of paper. The two pieces look great side by side or show each one off in it's own frame, either way they will catch your eye and bring a smile. 

The second limited edition celebrating the golden anniversary of this television special really needs no explanation, but indulge us. Snoopy is not your average canine, but you knew that. His wanderlust for Paris, being served fine root beer and day dreaming of sharing his time with a sweet French Poodle and then there is reality. A cross dissolve by the cameraman and he is in Peppermint Patty's backyard about to be nabbed by good 'ole Charlie Brown! This artwork was designed and created under the artistic direction of Larry Leichliter, at Bill Melendez Productions, Inc., in association with Lee Mendelson Productions and Charles M. Schulz's Creative Associates in 2018.

Diligently preserving this unforgettable moment from He's Your Dog, Charlie Brown!, Snoopy's Rendezvous on Saint Germain has been fashioned in the time-honored tradition of Bill Melendez Productions, Inc. This limited edition animation cel set-up is hand-inked, hand-painted and mounted on a giclee background print. Larry, in keeping with the studio's tradition, sketched a Key Pose Model Sheet of Snoopy on legal paper depicting his multiple roles in this special. A giclee print of this model sheet is signed by Larry and accompanies each cel in this limited edition. The background print and the giclee model sheet were replicated on Arches Velum Museum Rag paper from artwork especially prepared for this limited edition.
