Comic Mint is pleased to offer Jonny Quest fans this fantastic hand-painted and hand-inked publicity cel of the entire Quest team.
A great scene featuring full-figure images of Jonny Quest, Dr. Benton C. Quest, Roger T. "Race" Bannon, Hadji Singh, and Bandit.

The linework of the Quest team has been meticulously hand-inked and hand-painted on the front of the cel, and the characters are hand painted on the back of the cel and placed against a high quality giclee background. The cel measures 12.5" x 10.5" inches, and was created at HANNA-BARBERA as part of a marketing/publicity/Consumer Products project. Typically, Publicity Cels are created during production of a series. Slides and transparencies are created from this art and sent to magazines and newspapers in order to gather interest in a series. Photos are also sent to fans who write into the studio requesting a photo.

ABOUT THE SHOW
Jonny Quest, also known as The Adventures of Jonny Quest, is the original American science fiction/adventure animated television series that started the franchise. It was produced by Hanna-Barbera Productions for Screen Gems. It was created and designed by comic-book artist Doug Wildey. Inspired by radio serials and comics in the action-adventure genre, including Doc Savage, Tom Swift, The Adventures of Tintin and Jack Armstrong, the All-American Boy, the series featured more realistic art, characters, and stories than Hanna-Barbera's previous cartoon programs. This show closely parallels the juvenile Rick Brant series. It was the first of several Hanna-Barbera action-based adventure shows, which would later include Space Ghost, The Herculoids, and Birdman and the Galaxy Trio, and ran on ABC in primetime on early Friday nights for one season from 1964 to 1965.
