This one-of-a-kind cel drawing from *Dr.

SLUMP*—a seminal work by Akira Toriyama—highlights the synergy between the manga and its television adaptation, captivating fans since its serialization in the 1980s.

Created by skilled artist Katsuyoshi Nakatsuru and part of a limited contest prize from V Jump in 1993, its provenance adds to its collectible allure despite the noted damages.

Collector interest is particularly strong for Toriyama's works, with original cels gaining status as art pieces within Japanese pop culture; however, the current condition may moderate its market appeal.

Given the depth of nostalgia associated with *Dr.

SLUMP* and the rarity of such items, this cel provides a significant connection to the franchise’s legacy for discerning collectors.
