Hi everyone.
Back when I was a kid, we used to get Dragon Ball pencil cases and they used to have original art by Toei or Bandai (I forget which) on it.
Does anybody know of a website where I could find more like these:
Any information about the images like date, year etc. is also welcomed.

Pencil cases huh? I don't remember seeing/owning of the pencil cases before but I'd definitely be interested in seeing if they are offered by anyone anywhere. You've checked the usual sources for nostalgic gear I assume (and by that I mean Ebay :p)?

I mean, whether Jesus is real or not, he - he's had a bigger impact on the world than any of us have. And the same can be said for Bugs Bunny and - and Superman and Harry Potter. They've changed my life - changed the way I act on the earth. Doesn't that make them kind of real? They might be imaginary but, but they're more important than most of us here. And they're all gonna be around here long after we're dead. So, in a way, those things are more realer than any of us.

This was the only pencil case I saw on ebay, although it does look pretty cool. No clue if it's official art or not though.

Yeah, they aren't available anymore. They weren't like the ones "Perfection" posted. They had this original TOEI art on them and were really popular in the mid-90's.
Anyway, does anybody know where I can find more pictures like the ones I had put up?

If you're just looking for more pictures like that, you could try to get your hands on the "
Golden Warrior" artbook from a few years back. It's a little hard to find nowadays, but it's well worth it if you want a lot of cool pictures drawn by the anime staff. Some of the pictures you posted above don't appear in that book (which is why I wish they'd release a sequel), but I think you'd be pretty satisfied.
I now you're mostly looking for a website, but I figured I'd throw it out there.

Thanks. That's been on my want list for quite a while now.
