VAN EATON GALLERIES AND AUCTIONS CELEBRATES
Welcome to our final catalog auction of 2025…
Pop Culture and Disney Parks: Featuring The Art of Disneyland!
I cannot express how huge this auction is. Not only in quantity - almost 900 lots - but in unbelievable quality. We are fortunate enough to have acquired original art straight from the Walt Disney Imagineering archive! These incredible paintings were originally displayed at The Disney Gallery’s very first exhibition, The Art of Disneyland 1955-1987, and are integral parts of Disney history. Very few were offered to the public before the remainder were quickly returned to the archive. From Marc Davis’ original Pirates of the Caribbean concept painting to Rolly Crump’s Museum of the Weird, I am simply blown away by the essential Disney pieces that we are able to offer to you. Remember, these aren’t prints—these are the actual, one-of-a-kind concept paintings by Disney Legends!
As if that weren’t enough, we have original animation art, movie props, “Alien Xmas” stop-motion puppets, creature prosthetics, rare video game systems, music collectibles, a huge collection of Walt Disney World props, Journey into Imagination puppets and costumes, and original Christmas card art by Disney animators! Like I said earlier: what an auction!
I would like to take this opportunity to thank you all for our continued support throughout our over 30 years in the business. It is a pleasure to help you find the collectibles you’ve always wanted, and I look forward to many more Disney decades with you. A big thank you to our consignors, without whom none of this would be possible.
I’d also like to thank our staff, who have mined the whole day through to unearth these Disney and pop culture treasures for you all.
I hope these lots remind you of unforgettable moviegoing experiences, family trips to the Parks, and many wonderful thoughts.
Thanks for a great 2025, and we look forward to more amazing experiences with you in 2026.
- Mike Van Eaton

While the Disney Studio’s shorts were quite successful, Walt dared to dream bigger: a full-length animated feature. The press originally dubbed “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs” as “Disney’s Folly.” They could not have been further from the truth. “Snow White” changed cinema forever, received widespread acclaim, and legitimized animation as a medium through which filmmakers could tell powerful stories. It also established Disney as the premier name in animation—and a merchandising juggernaut.

The Disney Gallery opened on July 11, 1987, with its inaugural exhibition “The Art of Disneyland 1955-1987,” showcasing the brilliant concept artwork of the Walt Disney Imagineering legends who had a hand in designing Disneyland. Originally planned as Walt’s apartment, the Gallery space above Pirates of the Caribbean went through several incarnations until Tony Baxter, working on addressing a queue issue with Pirates of the Caribbean, suggested that the space be used as an art gallery to show off the work of Walt Disney Imagineering artists and designers and open it to the public. Early on, the Gallery made original works of Imagineering artwork available to the public; however, that practice was quickly halted, with only a few of the original pieces released and the remainder staying behind locked doors at the Walt Disney Imagineering archives. Limited edition reprints of the artwork were released throughout the years, but were never as coveted or desired as the handful of originals that were briefly available.

Herbert Dickens Ryman (1910-1989) worked as a storyboard artist at MGM Studios throughout the 1930s. He first met Walt Disney at an exhibit of Ryman’s art at the Chouinard Institute. Impressed, Walt invited him to work at the Studio, where he served as an Art Director on “Fantasia” and “Dumbo.” In 1941, Ryman was part of El Grupo, the team of Disney artists who accompanied Walt on a three-month goodwill tour of South America. Ryman is perhaps best known for drawing the first full concept sketch of Disneyland. Aside from his film and Imagineering work, Ryman remained a prolific artist all his life, painting exotic locales he visited around the world.

464. A Herb Ryman “On the Long Trail: Peking” Painting. (Ryman, 1980) An original Herb Ryman watercolor painting titled On the Long Trail: Peking based on sketches from his 1936-1937 travels throughout Asia. Ryman was instrumental in creating the look of hundreds of classic movies (1935-1954) as well as the Disney parks (1953-1989). His extensive travels served him well when Disney called in 1978 for him to design concepts for multiple pavilions for World Showcase, the China Pavillion was one of these. While this rendering was not specifically for the actual Pavilion, drawn from his extensive sketchbook sketches from his travels through China, he created this magnificent rendering that recreated the “sunlit dusk” atmosphere at the end of the Peking Trail, looking at a spectacular tower and bridge. This served as inspiration for the China concept renderings that followed. The artwork retains the original matte and frame that Ryman had built for it as well as the Walt Disney Imagineering identification label on the reverse. Measuring 21.25” x 28.5” visible in a 31.5” x 38.25” frame, the painting is in fine condition.

“To be an animator, you have to have a sense of the dramatic, a feel for acting. You have to be a storyteller.”
- marc davis
Marc Davis (1913-2000) started at Disney in 1935, hired on the spot when they viewed his portfolio illustrating animals in motion. He worked as an assistant animator on “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs,” drawing the young princess herself. Named by Walt as one of his nine old men of animation, Davis became known as “the ladies man” for animating women characters, including Alice, Tinker Bell, Briar Rose, and Maleficent. In the 1960s, Davis contributed to the World’s Fair attractions, adapting Mary Blair’s stylized concepts into character figures for It’s a Small World. For Disneyland, he added humor to the Jungle Cruise and Nature’s Wonderland, and most famously painted expressive character-driven scenes in Disney’s ultimate audio-animatronic attractions, Pirates of the Caribbean and the Haunted Mansion.

“It’s better to be a working artist that enjoys his work and gets interesting assignments than somebody that organizes the work of others.”
- sam mckim
Sam McKim (1924-2004) started in entertainment as an actor who happened to draw until he got an interesting choice: either a role in John Ford’s new film, or making story sketches for 20th Century Fox movies. He happily chose working behind the scenes and, in 1954, found his way to Disney as a concept artist for Disneyland. His drawings brought to life Sluefoot Sue’s Golden Horseshoe Revue, and for the World’s Fair, Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln and Carousel of Progress. Yet even after drawing the first painting to represent the Haunted Mansion, he is best known for his wonderfully detailed souvenir maps of Disneyland from 1958 on.

Hench became synonymous with Imagineering, appearing on television with Walt for Disneyland’s 10th anniversary, and becoming Vice President of WED in 1972. On top of overseeing Tokyo Disneyland, EPCOT, and Disneyland Paris, he was the official portrait artist for Mickey Mouse from 1953 through 2003.

“I fell in love with every project I worked on.”
- rolly crump
Rolly Crump (1930-2023) knew he wanted to work for Disney the moment his father took him to “Three Little Pigs” at the age of three. He started at the Studio as an in-betweener on “Peter Pan” in 1953 and worked on the features through “One Hundred and One Dalmatians.” Moving to WED Imagineering in 1959, he worked on small projects before designing the Flying Saucers attraction poster, statues of the Tiki Gods for Adventureland, and the Tower of the Four Winds for the World’s Fair, as well as working with Mary Blair on It’s a Small World. In the Disneyland 10th anniversary television special, Rolly can be seen showing his designs for The Museum of the Weird - an unusual attraction Walt was enthusiastic for that never fully came to be.
