Description

Futurama was digitally animated. Shortly after the series first aired, Fox created a limited number of "1 of 1" animation cels to promote the show. These cels were originally made for the pilot episode and some were signed by Matt Groening.
Later, fans had the opportunity to purchase production drawings and pay extra to have a "1 of 1" cel created. These cels were paired with a copy background. My understanding is less than 100 were produced. It is unclear how many of these cels still exist today.

Futurama 1 of 1 cel from episode: Space Pilot 3000.

Back in 2016 I inquired with acmearchivesdirect to see if they had any more (they didn't and hadn't for many years) and they told me it was only 40-50 of them made total.

Wow! Even more rare than I realized. I would love to find a 1 of 1 cel featuring Zoidberg!
