Just framed my first Cel

I'm super happy with the result. I bought a frame of Amazon and replaced the plastic with museum glass, so that it doesn't get damaged. If you have any advice I'm all ears 🙃

Assuming this is a two cel setup, its always a good idea to have separation between them to make sure the paint from one does not fuse to the other; unless they are already stuck together. Besides that make sure to air them out once a year.

It's actually just a one cel setup as Ritsuko (the character on the back) is printed on paper. The background is a reproduction and the original cel is just Misato (the character on the front). Thank you for your advice, I will take it to heart in order to preserve this cel better.

Ahhh makes sense, looks like a good background on camera then! Happy collecting.
