The Aristocats Original Production Cel Available for Bid

Disney's 1970 animated film The Aristocats may not be mentioned in the same breath as its epics like Beauty and the Beast, The Lion King, or The Little Mermaid, but it does deserve its spot among the company's classics. Where The Aristocats shines isn't in grandiose storytelling but in creating an interesting and fully fleshed out world using cats as the basis. The film unpretentiously explores class with these cats and does so with the level of cuteness you'd expect from a Disney movie focusing on felines. Fans of this underappreciated classic can bid on an original production cel from The Aristocats today at Heritage Auctions.

The cel even comes framed. You can check out the cel and its framed presentation here, which I think looks quite nice:
