BUBBLEGUM CRISIS - Rare Promotional Cel Art (1987-1988)

These cel paintings were created to help promote the first three episodes of the 1987 OVA Bubblegum Crisis (Tinsel City Rhapsody, Born to Kill, and Blow Up). They were chiefly used for various posters and on the backs of albums, but also saw use in R. Talisorian Games’ RPG books during the mid-1990s.

While HD versions of the ep 1 art can be found easily, this version depicts the full coverage of the art including what would be cropped out ordinarily. The art for eps 2 and 3 are, however, much rarer and I could only normally find them as unscanned posters on Japanese auction sites. The “AD POLICE SUPER MECHANICS” one in particular was exceedingly difficult to find pictures of.

Hope you all enjoy this here slice of obscure, nearly lost Bubblegum Crisis art!
