ABOUT THE IMAGE: Strap on those skates and clear off that Zamboni – it’s face-off time as National Hockey League legend Mario Lemieux comes out of retirement for one last game in “Goal, Lemieux!” the limited edition cel. Each cel was hand signed by Mario Lemieux.
This limited edition cel began with a Kirk Mueller layout from which Vince Musacchia created a pencil drawing. From this drawing Laurie Dindis created the master inking which was then silkscreened with the Warner Bros. seal onto an acetate sheet (or “cel”). Each cel was ink-enhanced by hand before being hand-painted on the reverse side. The background by Hector Martinez was reproduced on acid-free paper using a fine art lithography process. Along with approval from the National Hockey League, each “Goal, Lemieux!” bears the signature of Mario Lemieux. The edition number was hand-inked on each cel in a special edition size of only 350 pieces.
