What is an anime cel?

Anime cels are acetate sheets used in the production of anime series. The artwork is handpainted on the back of the clear acetate sheet. Thus, each cel is a single frame of an episode from an anime TV series (or movie/oav).

As such, the prices of anime cels range from very reasonable to very expensive.
