Numbered Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron Lithograph Hits Auction

The animated feature Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron was released in 2002. A noted visual stunner, this film from Dreamworks was a standout due to its more realistic depiction of animals compared to other animated films of the time. Instead of depicting the animals as talking creatures, filmmakers Kelly Asbury and Lorna Cook along with screenwriter John Fusco chose to depict them communicating in nonverbal ways. The legacy of Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron continues with new content including the 2017 Netflix TC series Spirit Riding Free and the part sequel, part spinoff film Spirit Untamed. Fans of this animated feature can now head over to Heritage Auctions to bid on a lithograph from the film, straight out of the Ellenshaw Family Archives.

Heritage also provided a photograph of this limited edition lithograph so you can see what it will look like when brought home.

This item will also come with a Certificate of Authenticity from the production of Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron which can be previewed right here.

Now, let's take a look at the listing.

Spirit Stallion of the Cimarron Limited Edition Lithograph #2189/5400 (DreamWorks, 2002).
