Here is an early photo of the Haunted Mansion probably from its opening year in 1969.
Photo of the Week: The Mansion is Open!
Photo of the Week: “The Pirates Are Coming!”
This is an issue of Disney News which premiered for the opening of “Pirates of the Caribbean”. Featured is the Auctioneer and Big Blue from “Pirates”, but they look a little different, don’t they? These are not audio animatronics, but life-size static models, which Walt actually got to see! Walt was around for this life-size mockup of the entire auction scene. Where are these full figures today, I wonder?
Photo of the Week: “It All Started with a Mouse”
Here is a new thing we are going to try out. Over the years, I have collected tons and tons of Disney photos from the internet, books, thrift shops, antique stores, ebay… So I thought that every week, I would post a picture I have collected.
Ready for the first photo? Here we go!
If you want to request that we post a photo of a certain attraction, character, film, or what have you, please let us know and we’ll do our best to please you.
