Well, I'm glad the consensus is that the cel is not a production cel. :D

I don't think that work you do on the coach scene will work because of the fade differences ...
Yeah, I was thinking that, too. Fortunately, there is the 35mm color-target of the girl (cropped to remove distractions):
Here's something quick to check the one setting approach for a master color correction. On the very beginning shot of the cartoon reel is shot of the girl. So, my color correction:
low gamma high midtone
RED 0 1.5 255 -5
GREEN 0 1.4 255 -5
BLUE 0 1.2 255 -5
LUT capture 35mm-guided color correction
Of course, this may not be accurate for this shot, but it's close enough by eye. This setting is then applied blind to the cartoon:
Not bad. It could be a little hot in the brighter areas (probably same with the girl for that matter). I'd really like to use 35mm sample shots to know for sure. ;)
