About Us
Our
Story
For many years, I had the privilege of managing one of the largest Warner Bros. Studio Store galleries, in San Diego, California. During that time, I worked closely with an incredible collection of rare Warner Bros. artwork and merchandise, while also hosting many of the talented artists and creators behind these beloved characters. Being surrounded by original animation art and meeting the people who brought these stories to life deepened my appreciation for the artistry and history of animation.

​
When the Warner Bros. gallery eventually closed its doors, I knew my passion for animation art wasn’t something I could simply walk away from. The experience inspired me to continue helping collectors discover and enjoy these remarkable pieces of animation history.
​
That passion led me to found Animation America in 2000. Since then, my mission has been to connect collectors and fans with authentic animation artwork—from vintage animation cels to limited-edition studio pieces—helping preserve the magic of animation for future generations.
​
Animation America offers a variety of pop culture and animation collectibles. Featuring animation art from some of the best animation directors there ever was, including Warner Bros animation., Disney animation and beyond. Coupled with graded Pokémon cards, Marvel cards, comic books, non-sport and Sports cards. Throw in a dash of curated collectibles from the old Warner Bros. galleries and top it off with a plethora of plushies.
​
Animation America is a family-owned business built on a lifelong passion for the art of animation. What started as my personal love for animation artwork has grown into something much more meaningful—a legacy I hope to one day pass on to my son. My hope is that he discovers the same appreciation for these incredible works of art and the stories behind them, and continues sharing that passion with collectors and fans for years to come.
​
​
We truly appreciate your business. Please reach out to our 30+ years experience in animation and collectibles if there is anything you are looking for, or need help find that special collectible for someone else.
