VAN E ATO N GALLERIES PRESENTS

For decades, Walt Disney entertained the idea of building an amusement park style attraction.

As a child growing up in Kansas City, Walt frequently visited Electric Park, which was located just 15 blocks from his family home. He continued these visits in adulthood. It has been noted that on one visit in 1920 with Rudy Ising, he declared “One of these days I’m going to build an amusement park... And it’s going to be clean!” As his studio grew, Walt built upon the memories of his childhood in the Midwest and the lessons of the early days of his studio, learning from these experiences as he pursued his vision. Through his triumphs and failures, he discovered how to achieve success, how to market his creations, and what it took to grab the attention of an audience. All these experiences greatly influenced him as he developed his idea for a theme park.

1. Walt Disney Hyperion Studios Sign Replica. (Disney, 2006) A limited edition replica of the Walt Disney Studios sign from the original Hyperion Avenue location. Created in metal, plastic, and wood by artists Kevin Kidney and Jody Daily, the sign measures an impressive 19”x25”. The original sign used neon, which is colorfully represented in the blue and red lettering of this replica. The lights are turned on and off by moving Mickey’s arm at the top of the sign. The condition is fair with scratches to the surface from previous display and some touched up paint in a few of the letters. The sign comes in its original box, which features a wonderful vintage photo of the full-size sign in use at the studio. The box has some moisture staining in the top right corner, but this does not affect the sign. $1,000-$2,000 4

DISNEYLAND: THE FIRST 65 YEARS - AN EXHIBITION AND AUCTION 2. “Mickey’s Nightmare” Original Layout Drawing. (Disney, 1932) A rare original production layout drawing from the 1932 Mickey Mouse short, “Mickey’s Nightmare.” By this time, Mickey Mouse had become a global sensation, and the studio had begun to grow and experiment with new animation techniques and styles.

Walt Disney had a fascination with technology which would catapult his studio to the forefront of the animation industry. This same fascination would also influence the development of his theme park. The layout is accomplished in graphite and colored pencil on untrimmed 9.5”x12” animation paper. A layout change sheet is also attached.

The drawing is in very fine condition with minor yellowing from age. $1,200-$1,500

3. Pair of Original “Klondike Kid” Production Drawings.

(Disney, 1932) A rare matched pair of production drawings featuring Mickey Mouse and Pluto from the 1932 Mickey Mouse short, “Klondike Kid.” Each drawing is accomplished in graphite on untrimmed 9.5”x12” animation paper. Mickey’s image size is 3”x5.5” and Pluto’s image size is 2”x9.5”. Both are in very fine condition with yellowing and slight wear along the edges. $500-$700

4. Pinto Colvig Letter and Pair of Envelope Sketches. (Disney, 1934/37) An original letter from “Pinto” Colvig, the voice of Goofy and Pluto, as well as a pair of mailed envelopes with sketches by Colvig on the front. Colvig is most known for his work as the voice of Goofy and Pluto, however, he also provided voices for “The Three Little Pigs” and “The Grasshopper and the Ants.” The letter discusses how he managed to achieve a satisfactory royalty check for the popular songs from both short films. The drawing on one envelope depicts Bandmaster Mickey, while the other shows a clown and elephant. The letter measures 11”x8.5” and the envelopes measure approximately 4”x9.5”. The letter is in very good condition with expected wear from age, and the envelopes are in good condition with edge-wear from mailing, including torn edges on the right side from when they were originally opened. $400-$600 5

In 1933 Walt Disney and his brother Roy hired Kay Kamen, a well-known advertising executive, as the sole representative of Mickey Mouse and Disney merchandise. This decision changed the world of licensing and merchandising forever. Kamen turned the merchandising of characters into a revenue stream that financed the studio and its projects for years to come. It was through Kamen that Disney learned the value of marketing; something that would be key to the success of his future theme park.

5. Original 1934 Kay Kamen Merchandise Catalog. (Disney, 1934) An incredibly rare Walt Disney Enterprises merchandise catalog published by Kay Kamen, Inc. in 1934. The 76-page catalog showcases the variety of licensed Mickey Mouse products available to retailers across the world through beautiful black and white photos and descriptions. This was Kamen’s first published Disney catalog and not only showcases the brand power of Mickey Mouse, but also the enormous success Kamen had in licensing products for the studio. Measuring 12”x9”, the catalog is in very fine condition with minor cover wear, and comes with the original mailing envelope. The envelope is worn with some small tears. The inner cover page has a label from Richmond School Furniture Co, one of the listed manufacturers within the catalog.

This is an extremely rare piece of Disney history. $3,000-$5,000 6

6. Mickey & Donald Post Cereal Bowls Promotional Display. (Post Cereal, c.1930s) A very rare 1930s Post Cereal store display promoting “Beetleware” plastic bowls available as a premium. The display includes (12) bowls in red, blue, or yellow, with each bowl featuring an image of Donald or Mickey.

The cardboard display measures 10”x15” and 1.25” deep with three circular cut-outs to hold the 5.5” diameter bowls. The condition is good overall, with moderate wear and aging to the display, most noticeable at edges. The 10”x14” cardboard sign has some minor wear at bottom, and the bowls are in very fine condition. $500-$700

7. Ingersoll Mickey Mouse Wristwatch. (Ingersoll, 1934) An early Ingersoll Mickey Mouse wristwatch. Debuting at the Chicago World’s Fair in 1933, the watches were an immediate success, selling over 2.5 million pieces between 1933 and 1935. The watch has become iconic to the Mickey Mouse brand and is valued by collectors all over the world. This 1934 version features a metal link band and a second-hand disc featuring three small Mickeys. The watch has a band length of 6.25” in its 2.5”x4.5” and 1” deep original box. The watch is in very good condition with some light surface wear, and the box is in good condition with some wear and a few tears, but still intact. The hour hand can still be adjusted, but the watch will likely need servicing for full functionality. $500-$700

8. Ingersoll Mickey Mouse Pocket Watch with Fob. (Ingersoll, 1934) An early Ingersoll Mickey Mouse pocket watch complete with fob. Mickey’s appeal was worldwide, and the studio capitalized on it through Kay Kamen and his army of licensees. This 2” diameter silvered brass case pocket watch is the second version produced, and was marketed in England. The watch has moderate wear from use, but overall is in very good functioning condition. The original box and fob are worn but still exhibit well. It is extremely hard to find the watch, box and fob still together. $500-$700 7

With the move to the newly constructed Burbank studios in 1940, Walt began entertaining the idea of a tour or attraction on the property.

Disney called on brothers Bob and Bill Jones from the character model department to come up with initial ideas for a small, on-site park. The highlight was a dark ride through the mine from Snow White, complete with animated characters.

While Walt’s plans were put on hold with the outbreak of war in Europe, he kept formulating ideas.

Later, Walt sent a memo to Dick Kelsey in which he outlined his vision for a park which would be situated on an 11-acre triangle of land on Riverside Drive. At this early stage, it was to be known as “Mickey Mouse Park.” However, the production schedule at the studio kept Walt busy, and his plans had to be put on hold. It was not until the early 1950s that his plans truly began to take shape.

This image is provided for reference only. The actual item is unassembled in its original box.

9. Walt Disney Studios Street Sign Replica. (Disney, 2006) A limited edition replica that is based on the well-known street sign from the early years of the Walt Disney Studios in Burbank.

The sign is considered one of the iconic landmarks of the studio and has been prominently featured in numerous photos and films. Created by Kevin Kidney and Jody Daily, this sign faithfully recreates the original with eight moveable arms identifying Mickey Ave and Dopey Drive, as well as the In-between, Animation, Layout, Multiplane, Background, and Ink and Paint departments.

The sign is constructed of resin and painted metal and measures approximately 7ft tall when assembled. This particular sign has never been used and comes in its original box and packaging.

Finding this rare collectible unassembled and unused is exceptionally rare. The sign is in very fine unused condition and includes its original COA and assembly instructions. The box has only been opened so that the condition could be examined. This item will require special shipping arrangements, please contact us for details and estimates. $3,000-$5,000 8

10. Walt Disney Studios Ink & Paint Department Stool. (Disney, 1940s) An extremely rare original art stool from the Ink and Paint department at the Walt Disney Studios. Installed when the Burbank Studio first opened in 1940, the stool was attached to a table and would swivel out for use. The stool was rescued from being discarded by a studio technician during a period of renovation. The stool measures 12” in diameter and has a height of 7” including its metal mounting materials, and is in good condition with expected wear from significant studio use. $300-$500

DISNEYLAND: THE FIRST 65 YEARS - AN EXHIBITION AND AUCTION

11. Original Chernabog Fantasia Production Drawing. (Disney, 1940) An original production drawing of Chernabog from Walt Disney’s landmark feature animated film, Fantasia. Accomplished in graphite and colored pencil, the striking image of Chernabog measures 11”x11” on 12.5”x15.5” untrimmed animation paper. A matching drawing of a smoke effect is also included. The Chernabog drawing is in very good condition with minor wear from age and handling. $800-$1,000

12. Original Pinocchio Production Cel of Figaro. (Disney, 1940) An original production cel of Figaro from Pinocchio. A vintage technique for preserving animation cels was to coat the paint in clear nail polish, as seen in this cel. Over the years, the technique proved to work quite well, and some of the most well preserved cels we have today are because of this method. Figaro measures 5.75”x5” on the untrimmed 10”x11.5” cel, and has been placed on a printed reproduction background for display. The cel is in very good condition with some wrinkling from age and minor amounts of clear nail polish around the character. $700-$1,000

13. Original Dumbo Production Cel. (Disney, 1941) An original production cel of Dumbo that was originally marketed through the historic Courvoisier Galleries in San Francisco. The cel is trimmed to image and applied to an airbrushed woodgrain background for a wonderful display. The entire piece measures 9”x7”, with Dumbo measuring 3”x4.25”. The condition is good with some lifting from the background. $2,500-$4,500

14. Original Saludos Amigos Cel with Walt Disney Signature.

(Disney, 1942) An original production cel from Saludos Amigos that is custom framed with a Walt Disney autograph. The cel features Pedro the Mail Plane and a vulture from the “Pedro” segment of the film. The characters are handtrimmed and were mounted to the blue background, but have lifted from the background over time. Walt’s signature is written in graphite on the original brown mat frame, which is revealed through the die-cut black mat on top.

The character image measures approximately 4.5”x8.5”, and the signature measures 1.75”x5.25”. The overall framed piece measures 19”x21.75”. The condition is fair with general wear throughout, including a small tear to the vulture, and some paint wear to the vulture’s claws. The paper around the signature shows spots of discoloration. $1,500-$2,500 9

In the summer of 1951, Walt toured Europe with his wife Lillian and visited the famous Tivoli Gardens in Copenhagen. He was impressed by the cleanliness of the park, the beauty of the surroundings, the quality of dining, and the pleasant disposition of the employees. It was a world away from what he had experienced at parks in the United States. “Now this is what an amusement place should be,” he declared to his wife. Upon his return, Walt asked Harper Goff to produce sketches for his Burbank park, which were expanded upon with drawings by John Cowles and animator Don DaGradi. Though plans for the park were submitted in March of 1952, the idea of “Mickey Mouse Park” was ultimately abandoned due to two main factors: opposition from Burbank City officials, and the growing ambitions of Walt Disney as he expanded on his ideas.

Even before his plans were rejected, Walt saw the writing on the wall and began the search for a suitable plot of land elsewhere.

In December 1952, at the urging of his brother Roy, Walt founded Walt Disney Incorporated, later renamed to WED Enterprises, to avoid conflicting with the name of the studio. He immediately began recruiting the likes of Harper Goff, and art directors Dick Irvine and Marvin Davis to make his dream theme park a reality. In September 1953, after an exhaustive search, Walt settled on then-rural Anaheim, California and acquired a 160-acre parcel of land in the area. Walt now had a site on which to locate his park, but he still needed money to fund its construction, and so Roy flew to New York to try and persuade investors to back the project. The fledgling ABC network agreed to help fund the park for a stake in its profits and a weekly Disneyland TV show. The network later produced “The Mickey Mouse Club” in addition to “Walt Disney’s Disneyland,” both of which helped promote the opening of Walt’s theme park. With the financing in place, the development of Disneyland began in earnest.

15. Pair of Walt Disney Studios Annette Funicello Signs. (Disney, 2013) A pair of large signs used during the dedication ceremony for the Annette Funicello Stage at the Walt Disney Studios. The ceremony was held on June 24, 2013, shortly after Annette’s passing. The Annette Funicello Stage was formerly known as Stage 1, which was the filming location of the original Mickey Mouse Club television show. The stage was re-named after Annette as a fitting tribute to her career and legacy. These signs include the large “Annette Funicello Stage” sign which is written in Annette’s handwriting, as well as the large circular “1” which identifies the stage number. These signs were actually installed on the Stage 1 building, and represent a historic piece of Walt Disney Studios history.

Printed on dense foamcore with wooden mounting materials on the reverse, the stage sign measures an impressive 30”x120”, and the circular sign measures 36” in diameter. Both signs are in very fine condition with minor surface wear from use. This item will require special shipping arrangements. Please contact us for details and estimates. $800-$1,200 10

Originally scheduled to be released in 1955, Walt Disney’s “Sleeping Beauty” was meant to coincide with the opening of Disneyland. Many of the talented Imagineers who were instrumental in creating the park also worked on this film.

21. Eyvind Earle Sleeping Beauty Castle Walkthrough Concept. (Disneyland, 1957) An original concept painting by Eyvind Earle for the Sleeping Beauty Castle Walkthrough attraction. When Walt Disney asked his Imagineers to find a creative use for empty space within Sleeping Beauty Castle, they settled on a walkthrough featuring dioramas that would tell the story of Sleeping Beauty, which was currently still in production at the studio. Walt reached out to Eyvind Earle, background artist and color stylist for the feature film, and Earle created a series of color concept paintings of potential scenes. These scenes were created as though the viewer was looking through a window. This stunning original painting is one of Earle’s concepts for the walkthrough. The painting measures an impressive 10.25”x20”. It is accomplished in gouache on art board and has been signed by Earle at the lower right. One of the best of these concept paintings we have seen, this piece is an amazing artifact of Disney Studio and Disneyland history. $15,000-$20,000

22. Original Prince Phillip Production Cel. (Disney, 1959) An original panoramic production cel of Prince Phillip and Samson from Sleeping Beauty.

DISNEYLAND: THE FIRST 65 YEARS - AN EXHIBITION AND AUCTION

23. Original Briar Rose and Prince Phillip Production Cel. (Disney, 1959) A beautiful original production cel featuring Briar Rose and Prince Phillip from Sleeping Beauty.

It has since been re-matted, but retains its original Art Corner printed background. The total image size of the two characters is 4.5”x9”. The cel is in very good condition with minor wear, with some wear to the mat. $2,000-$2,500

24. Walt Disney & Artists Signed “The Art of Animation”. (Disney, 1958) A very rare book titled “The Art of Animation” that is signed

by Walt Disney himself, as well as 102 other members of the Walt Disney Studios. By the 1950s, Walt was able to pull from the talented artists and craftsmen of his studio to help make his dream of Disneyland a reality. These individuals would later become known as “Imagineers.”

This hardcover book by Bob Thomas is not only prominently signed by Walt Disney in bold ink, but also by (102) members of the studio staff, many of whom helped design and develop Walt’s theme park. The signatures include such legendary animators as Milt Kahl, Frank Thomas, Ollie Johnston, T. Hee, John Lounsbery, Ward Kimball, and Les Clark; as well as artists turned Imagineers such as John Hench, Marc Davis, Ken Anderson, X. Atencio, Claude Coats, Yale Gracey, Walt Peregoy, Bill Justice, Ken O’Connor, and many others. This book belonged to Disney animator Jack Boyd, with a few of the signatures being personalized to him. Jack had the book signed as a gift for his son, Steve, with Jack signing his own photo within the book as “dad.” Walt’s signature and a few others are personalized to Steve. Measuring 11.25”x8.5”, the book is in good condition with moderate discoloration and wear to the cover. The inner pages are in good condition, with varying amounts of handling wear. The dust jacket is not included. This is an amazing artifact from both the history of the studio and Disneyland. $4,000-$6,000 13

Walt Disney knew that if his park were going to succeed, he would need to surround himself with talented and creative individuals who could turn his dream into a reality. In 1953, Disney created WED Enterprises as a division to help design and build Disneyland. Walt formed a core group of artists, designers, and engineers, many of whom were borrowed from the Walt Disney Studios. These individuals would be able to take his ideas and build upon them. WED Enterprises would later become Walt Disney Imagineering, as a combination of “imagination” and “engineering.” Walt’s talented pool of artists and designers became known as “Imagineers,” and it is their original photographs, documents, and other artifacts that provide us with a historical record of the creation of Disneyland.

25. 1954 Disneyland Organizational Chart. (Disneyland, 1954) An extremely rare early organizational chart for Disneyland’s management, dated July 1, 1954. The interim chart is said to be one of the earliest in the park’s existence, and comes from the collection of Disney Legend Milt Albright. This exact chart is known to have been displayed in Albright’s office for years, and was kept by Albright following his retirement. It features the names of the first 16 employees of Disneyland as well as the board of directors and executives committee. The chart is mounted to a thicker paper which itself is mounted to a larger mat board for display. The overall measurements are 15”x21”, and the condition is good with expected wear from age and display. There are a few spots of discoloration to the chart, as well as some creases from prior folding. $3,000-$5,000 14

DISNEYLAND: THE FIRST 65 YEARS - AN EXHIBITION AND AUCTION

26. Disneyland Insurance Engineering Report & Fold-Out Map. (Disneyland, 1955) An insurance engineering report for fire safety at Disneyland. Prepared by the firm Marsh & McLennan in August of 1955, the report includes details regarding fire safety operations as well as recommendations to be completed. Of particular note is an included fold-out map of the park with markings that correspond to the safety report.

Reports such as this were instrumental in the development and safety of Disneyland during its opening year, and the corresponding map of Disneyland is believed to have been created specifically for this report, and is unlike any other map of the park we have encountered. Measuring 11.5”x9.25”, the 11-page report is in very good condition with expected edge-wear from age and use, as well as some surface wear to the binder.

The map measures 36.5”x54.5” when unfolded, with a 1” overhang at the lower left for inclusion in the report.

There are some spots of tearing to the map, particularly where it attaches within the binder. $4,000-$6,000 15

28. 1955 Carolwood Pacific Railroad Pass.

These passes were printed exclusively for use at Walt’s personal backyard railroad, and the front of the card includes a line at the bottom where Walt would authorize the pass. Many Imagineers including Disney Legends Harper Goff and Ward Kimball shared Walt’s passion for trains, and Walt’s Carolwood Pacific Railroad would be the later become the influence for the Disneyland Railroad. Due to the limited capacity of the ride and ongoing safety issues, no further cards were issued after 1953 and the remaining passes for 1954-55 were stored at the Retlaw offices.

Originally hired at the Walt Disney Studios as an accountant, Milt Albright caught Walt’s eye in 1953 when he designed a miniature car for Autopia, an attraction that was still in early planning stages at the time. In 1954, Walt hired Milt as the manager of accounting for his park and gave him the employee ID badge designation of 10, making Albright one of the park’s earliest employees. He went on to become the manager of the short-lived Holidayland, and in 1957, he created the Magic Kingdom Club, which ultimately became the largest employee leisure benefit program in the country. He is also credited with the creation of the popular Grad Nite event. In 2005, Milt Albright was awarded the title of Disney Legend for his significant contributions to the Disney parks.

33. Milt Albright’s Metal Disneyland ID Badge. (Disneyland, 1955) An original Disneyland cast member ID badge created for Milt Albright, one of the earliest park employees. The earliest metal badges assigned each cast member a number. Walt Disney himself was number 1, and each subsequent employee was numbered sequentially higher. Officially designated as employee number 10, Albright was one of the park’s first employees, initially hired as the manager of accounting. Albright moved on to manage the short-lived Holidayland as well as Group Sales, where he started the groundbreaking Magic Kingdom Club program. This rare metal badge is the lowest number of the original ID badges that we’ve ever seen offered for public sale. Albright’s badge was mounted in lucite along with his signature as a retirement gift. Measuring 2.5”x5.75” and 1” deep within the lucite, this incredible artifact of Disneyland history is in good condition with some scuffing and scratching to the surface of the lucite, particularly on the reverse, and some tarnishing to the metal badge from use and age.

Walt Disney was convinced that the success of the park was dependent on having a quality hotel next to Disneyland. However, Walt reached his financial limits during the planning and construction of his park and had to find a third party with resources and experience to construct and operate a hotel. In 1954, Walt met Jack Wrather, a successful businessman who was looking to expand into the hotel business, and a partnership was made. The Disneyland Hotel remained under Wrather’s control until 1988, when the Walt Disney Company purchased the entire Wrather Corporation, and with it, ownership of the hotel.

When Disneyland first opened in 1955, an adult admission ticket cost one dollar, and a child’s ticket cost fifty cents. Inside the park, tickets for each individual attraction could be purchased at nearby ticket booths. In October of 1955, the park introduced the first ticket books; a classic Disney innovation. Conceived by Disneyland Public Relations director Ed Ettinger, the books provided admission to the park and coupons to experience eight attractions. In 1959, the addition of the Matterhorn Bobsleds, Submarine Ride, and Monorail saw the addition of the popular “E” ticket. In 1982, the books were phased out with the introduction of an all-inclusive “Passport.”

Today, vintage tickets and ticket books offer us a picture of the history and development of Disneyland and have become some of the most varied and collectible artifacts of the park.

Few Disneyland souvenirs have had greater historical and visual appeal than the original souvenir park maps. The first large format souvenir maps debuted in 1958 and were designed

by Imagineer Sam McKim, who continued to create and revise the maps through 1964. These intricately illustrated maps depict the park during various stages of its development, sometimes featuring the first appearance of a new attraction or plans for future development that never came to fruition. No matter what year is depicted, these maps provide an unequaled visual history of the growth and evolution of Disneyland.

Measuring 30”x45”, the map is in overall fair condition with a few professionally repaired tears and spots of image restoration. The bottom and right edges have a few chips in the paper, particularly in the bottom-right corner. These “A” maps are very rare in their own right, with the scarce few that have been signed by McKim being exceptionally even more so. The map has been linen-backed for its preservation. $2,000-$4,000

Originally planned to occupy the space where the Matterhorn sits today, Holidayland was first mentioned in early plans for Disneyland. In June 1957, Holidayland debuted as a nine-acre area outside of the park that companies could rent for events. Milt Albright served as the manager for Holidayland, which enjoyed great success for its short time in operation. Ultimately, the lack of adequate restrooms, shade, and evening lighting all played a part in the land’s closure. As Albright said, “It wasn’t any one thing that killed Holidayland. It was just the combined effect of a whole lot of things.”

225. Set of (3) Holidayland Grand Opening Films. (Disneyland, 1957) An extremely rare set of (3) 16mm color film reels of the grand opening events for Holidayland. Arguably the least photographed “land” in Disneyland history, the short-lived picnic and recreation area is shown in this footage during its first ever event, the Los Angeles Elk’s Lodge No.99 Picnic on June 16, 1957. The rare footage belonged to Disney Legend Milt Albright, who managed Holidayland during its short life-span of 1957-61.

Patterned on the look of small-town America in the early 1900s, Main Street, U.S.A. brings to life Walt Disney’s nostalgia for his childhood in Marceline, Missouri. Set in a time when horse-drawn carts were still in use and automobiles were just becoming popular, it harkens to an era with one foot in the past and another in the future. It is Main Street, U.S.A. that serves as a transitional doorway between reality and fantasy; a portal between the real world and the adventures yet to come.

227. Robert Olszewski Main Street USA Model. (Disneyland, 2002-2012) A stunning large model of Disneyland by renowned miniaturist Robert Olszewski. Olszewski created a series of highly detailed “Z Scale” 1/220th replicas of the buildings in Disneyland’s Main Street U.S.A. between 2002 and 2012.

Although sold individually, a platform was made that would allow collectors to take the buildings off the display bases and replicate the entirety of Main Street.

Very few of these platforms and sets were sold, and even fewer were completed. This amazing set completes Olszewski’s faithful recreation of Main Street in a jaw-dropping display. The model measures approximately 72”x35”, and is in very good condition with expected minor wear from previous display. A few pieces of the model have small chips and scuffs. In addition to the buildings, platform, and tree accessory pieces, this set also includes additional Electrical Light Parade sets 1 and 2, many small character pieces to set up throughout the display, and an Olszewski touch-up paint kit. Not all of the original boxes or separate building bases are included. This item may require special shipping arrangements. Please inquire for details and estimates. $15,000-$20,000 75

The set also includes a small train and several lighted elements. The original Japanese language manuals for assembly are included, and are simple to follow. The set also includes the large wooden case to display this incredible model. The set is in very good unassembled condition. Many of the boxes are still sealed, however some of the opened boxes are separating from their backings due to the materials used in production, but this does not affect the condition of the pieces themselves.

Walt Peregoy’s career with Disney began in 1942 at the age of 17, when he dropped out of high school to work for the studio. He spent only two months with Disney before leaving to serve in the coast guard during WWII, but he returned after the war to work as a designer and animator for films such as Peter Pan and Lady and the Tramp. Although he was not a “traditional” Disney animator, Peregoy continued to work at the studio for 14 years, serving as lead background painter of Sleeping Beauty and color stylist for One Hundred and One Dalmatians, among other projects.

Later additions such as the Swiss Family Treehouse and the audio-animatronic Enchanted Tiki Room have become the favorite attractions of many park guests. At 65 years old, Adventureland is still one of the most popular lands in the park.

Of all the lands in Disneyland, Frontierland best captures Walt’s dream of a themed entertainment environment. Frontierland features some of the most beloved and unchanged attractions in the park, including the Golden Horseshoe Revue, the Mark Twain Riverboat, Tom Sawyer Island, Big Thunder Mountain Railroad, and more.

432. Tom Sawyer Island Map Original Artwork. (Disneyland, 1957) An original hand-colored map of Tom Sawyer Island that was used in the creation of the park’s popular Tom Sawyer Island souvenir maps. While Tom Sawyer Island held its opening ceremonies on June 16, 1956, it wasn’t until the summer of 1957 when the attraction received some of its most well-known additions, such as Tom and Huck’s Treehouse and Castle Rock Ridge, that the attraction’s popularity grew. With the new additions, an updated map was needed to help guests navigate the island. This hand-colored artwork was created during the very early stages of development for the 1957 Tom Sawyer Island map. Several details on this map never made it to the final hand-out, such as the “Mysterious Maze” and “Subterranean Passage” areas on the eastern side of the map. Additionally, Tom and Huck’s Treehouse is listed as the “highest point in Disneyland,” which was only true until the Matterhorn was constructed between 1958 and 1959. Interestingly, small flourishes in the font choice on this map, such as the “S” and “E” on the compass, also appeared on the large version of the map that was prominently displayed on Tom Sawyer Island, but were changed for the final map handout. Created on art paper that is mounted to a large sheet of art board, this map is entirely hand-colored in colored pencils over printed brownline details.

The border and walkways are painted in white, and “Injun Joe’s Cave” is handwritten over the paint. There is a note on the reverse that mentions this artwork was to be delivered to Disney Legend Bill Cottrell during its original use. Measuring 17”x21.5” on its art board, the map is in fair condition overall with some spots of moisture discoloration and edge-wear from use. An original map handout is included with the artwork. This is an incredible artifact of Tom Sawyer Island history, that was used in the creation of one of the most popular early Disneyland handouts. $5,000-$7,000 142

Don DeFore established himself as an accomplished stage, screen, and TV actor in the 1940s and 1950s. While he was serving as president of the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences in 1954, he struck up a friendship with fellow board member, Walt Disney. In support of Walt, DeFore appeared as a guest for the opening day Disneyland TV Special on July 17th, 1955, and even became a frequent visitor to the park with his family. In 1957, Casa De Fritos was looking for a larger space near the front of Disneyland, leaving a small restaurant space available in Frontierland. At the request of Walt Disney, Bud Coulson, who oversaw lessees for the park, offered DeFore a 5-year lease on the space for a restaurant. Don DeFore’s Silver Banjo Barbecue Restaurant, named for DeFore’s personal banjo, opened next to Aunt Jemima’s Pancake House on New Orleans Street in Frontierland in 1957. Unique to Disneyland, this is the only instance in the park’s history in which a restaurant included the name of a living person who was not Walt Disney. DeFore, when available, was both the host and cook, while his brother Vern managed the restaurant. Although the Silver Banjo was a popular landmark in Frontierland, DeFore did not renew his lease due to acting commitments, and the restaurant closed in 1962. Surviving artifacts from this short-lived restaurant are extremely rare among Disneyland collectors and fans of DeFore alike. The following pieces come from the private collection of Disneyland historian and author of “Growing Up in Disneyland,” Ron DeFore, Don DeFore’s son, and represent some of the earliest and most important artifacts from the park that we have ever seen.

When Splash Mountain opened in 1989, it helped increase guest traffic to the now rethemed “Critter Country,” and introduced new characters and songs to entertain guests. Re-using animatronics from America Sings also allowed Imagineers to develop the attraction on a smaller budget. In June 2020, it was announced that Splash Mountain will be rethemed to The Princess and the Frog, making documents, props, and souvenirs from the original version of the attraction even more collectable.

463. Splash Mountain One-of-a-Kind Sponsorship Pitch Book. (Disneyland, 1985) An incredible one-of-a-kind sponsorship pitch book for “Brer Rabbit’s Splash Mountain.” Imagineer Tony Baxter conceived of the attraction in the summer of 1983, as a way to attract guests to the often empty Bear Country area of Disneyland. Baxter and his team developed the concept of Zip-a-Dee River Run, which would incorporate scenes from Song of the South.

The name was later changed to Splash Mountain after then CEO Michael Eisner’s suggestion that the attraction be used to help market the 1984 film Splash. As the project progressed, and budgets expanded, the park searched for a corporate sponsor to help alleviate the rising costs. This hand-constructed pitch book was specially created in 1985 for Peter Nelson, the head of domestic marketing at McDonald’s. The book was created a full two years before construction on the ride would begin, and 4 years before the attraction’s opening. The 11.5”x15.5” multi-ring binder has a vinyl cover with an applied hand painted title that is enhanced with trimmed and applied photographic images of Brer Rabbit, and Brer Frog. Gold lettering at the bottom of the cover reads “Prepared for Pete Nelson, October 10th, 1985.” The interior contains (11) double-sided pages and one single sided page. Using photographic reproductions of early concept art as well as McDonalds themed concept pieces, the pitch explains the benefits of sponsorship at both Disneyland and Walt Disney World, as well as an overview of the attraction. Several pages include hand-painted and custom elements that enhance the printed elements. The book comes in a fitted hard sleeve, and is in fine condition with only minor wear and scuffing. This is an incredible look at the early development of one of the most popular attractions at the park, and a one-of-a-kind archive of the history and creation of Splash Mountain. $1,000-$2,000 156

DISNEYLAND: THE FIRST 65 YEARS - AN EXHIBITION AND AUCTION

The idea of a “haunted manor” attraction was discussed by Walt and his Imagineers long before Disneyland opened. As early as 1951, concept designs by Harper Goff for Main Street, U.S.A. showed an early rendition of what would become the Haunted Mansion. While the original plan for the Haunted Mansion was a walk-through attraction, changes in design, increased animatronic capabilities, and Imagineer ingenuity helped turn the attraction into the iconic Omnimover dark ride that we know it as today.

537. Original Phineas Pock Haunted Mansion Tombstone Prop. (Disneyland, 1969) An extremely rare original tombstone prop from the exterior attraction queue for the Haunted Mansion.

The tombstones in the front queue area of the Haunted Mansion are very well known among park-goers. However, between 1969 and 1973, there was a lesser-known graveyard along the queue area at the back of the attraction. This graveyard was known as the “family plot” and contained only eight tombstones. Seven of the tombstones were humorous tributes to the Imagineers that had created the attraction, including the likes of Marc Davis, Rolly Crump, Wathel Rogers, Claude Coats, Vic Greene, Yale Gracey, and X. Atencio. The remaining tombstone was for a mysterious character, Phineas Pock. In early plans and documents for the Haunted Mansion, Pock was mentioned as the planned ghost host for the attraction, with his name even being mentioned in early souvenirs such as the Magic from The Haunted Mansion book. Although this plan changed, the character Phineas Pock ultimately did make his way into the attraction itself as one of the five singing busts, voiced by Bob Ebright. When the original “family plot” of tombstones was removed around 1973 to make room for an expansion of the queue area, the same Phineas Pock tombstone was relocated to the Mansion’s new “berm graveyard.” By 1978, this original tombstone was removed and presented as a gift by a park employee to the family of this tombstone’s consignor. Thought lost to time, this incredible Haunted Mansion artifact is brought to light now for the first time since it was removed from the attraction in the 1970s. Composed of painted fiberglass with dense foam at its core, the tombstone measures approximately 43”x28” and 8.25” deep. The condition is fair, with several thin cracks in the fiberglass on the front, small chips throughout, and some general surface wear from extended use. Special shipping arrangements may apply. Please inquire for details and estimates. $8,000-$12,000

538. Original Haunted Mansion Stretching Portrait. (Walt Disney World, c.1970s) An original hand-painted canvas stretching portrait from the Haunted Mansion at the Magic Kingdom.

Walt Disney and Davis first introduced the idea of the stretching portraits on the Tencennial episode of the Disneyland television show, over 4 years before the attraction would open in 1969. Featuring the woman sitting on the tombstone of her late husband, George, this original prop is a wonderful artifact of Haunted Mansion history. Only the earliest stretching portraits were hand-painted, while more modern ones are printed. This incredible Haunted Mansion prop measures an astonishing 144�x48�, and is in good condition overall with a few minor scratches and marks from the portrait’s use and removal.

DISNEYLAND: THE FIRST 65 YEARS - AN EXHIBITION AND AUCTION

Walt Disney’s second television program, “The Mickey Mouse Club” was a children’s anthology program featuring child actors called “Mouseketeers.” The show was an instant success, initially running from 1955 to 1959, and helped to promote and fund Disneyland during its earliest years.

At the park, the Mickey Mouse Club Circus, housed in a Circus tent outside of Fantasyland, ran from 1955 to early 1956. This short-lived attraction featured Mouseketeers from the television program, live animals, and talented performers such as George Keller. However, the circus proved unable to compete with the many one-of-a-kind attractions exclusive to Disneyland, and the show marked a rare failure for the park. Despite this stumble, the popularity of the early Mickey Mouse Club remains today, as the original members are treated with warm regard for the laughter and entertainment their work has given countless Disney fans over the years. Artifacts from this attraction are quite rare and extremely collectable.

Additionally, the program highlights the acts and performers for other aspects of the circus, and is signed by acrobat Ted DeWayne, wild animal tamer George Keller, the world’s most famous performing horse Serenada, animal trainer Johhny H., and circus clowns Dick David, Ginko, and Jack Landers the midget clown. Although not part of the circus itself, the program also promotes the Golden Horseshoe Revue and is signed by the performers Don Novis, Sluefoot Sue Judy Marsh, Wally Boag, and the four dance hall girls. This program features some of the rarest Disneyland signatures imaginable, and is a breathtaking artifact representing the beginning years of the park.

When Walt Disney was approached by Pepsi and UNICEF to build an attraction for the 1964 New York World’s Fair, he was only given 11 months to complete the project. With Mary Blair helming design and color choices, and Marc Davis and Rolly Crump designing scenes, characters, and toys, the water-based dark ride featuring the children of the world became incredibly successful. The attraction sold approximately 10 million tickets to adults and children, with proceeds donated to UNICEF. After the World’s Fair, the attraction was brought to Disneyland in 1966, where the iconic music, imagery, and history behind It’s a Small World has helped to make it one of the greatest Disney attractions of all time.

Tomorrowland was one of the last of the original themed lands to be built before Disneyland’s opening day.

Although the Art Corner opened on July 17, 1955 along with the rest of the park, it was not until September of that year that the store moved from Main Street to its permanent location in Tomorrowland. Created to sell souvenirs and Disneyana, the Art Corner is perhaps best known for selling original Disney animation cels.

DISNEYLAND: THE FIRST 65 YEARS - AN EXHIBITION AND AUCTION

In 1964, Walt Disney Productions began buying up large amounts of land near Orlando, Florida, hiding their purchases under shell corporations to avoid speculation. It wasn’t until late 1965 that Walt Disney’s plans were confirmed, and on November 15, 1965, Walt officially announced that he would be building a second park in Florida. It was here that he would build his “East Coast Disneyland,” and it was here that he envisioned his “Experimental Prototype Community of Tomorrow.” Although Walt did not live long enough to see his vision realized, Roy O. Disney postponed his retirement to helm the project, which began construction in 1967. Documents and souvenirs from this period of time, before the opening of the park, show us a company overcoming the death of their beloved founder and dealing with the challenges of turning Walt Disney’s vision for this property into a reality. It represents an entirely new chapter in the history of the Walt Disney Company.

Originally conceived by Walt Disney during the early development of Walt Disney World, Epcot, the “Experimental Prototype Community of Tomorrow,” was an experimental community that would be a center for American innovation and urban living. Walt’s original concept was abandoned after his death in 1966, as the company was uncertain about the feasibility of maintaining and operating an actual city. In the 1970s, Imagineers began developing a second theme park for Walt Disney World as the popularity of the Magic Kingdom grew. The new park maintained the idea of showcasing modern innovation and enterprise through “edutainment” attractions, as well as a showcase of the world’s nations. The park was divided into two sections, Future World and World Showcase. It was named Epcot Center, in tribute to Walt’s original vision, and opened in 1982.

This idea was comprised of two unique experiences, Future World and The World Showcase. This 50-page presentation book begins with a hand-singed letter to President Carter from Card Walker, President and CEO of Walt Disney Productions.

If Bidder is not known to auctioneer, a proposed Bidder shall furnish satisfactory credit information (”SCI”) at least five business days prior to the auction. Such SCI shall include two credit references, a social security number, and appropriate credit card information. Auctioneer reserves the right to make a credit check of any proposed Bidder and such Bidder consents to the making of such a credit check. The acceptance of checks is in the auctioneer’s sole discretion and may be based on a variety of criteria, such as a credit bureau report, a bank check, or otherwise. The auctioneer will accept, up to five business days prior to the date of the auction, deposits for bidding, if the check is a local check; or up to 10 business days before deposit if the check is not a local check. Such deposits will be kept in an attorney’s trust account, and shall not be applied to any payment absent a successful recognized bid. Those bidding on the Internet must pre-register at least one business day before the auction and bids will not be accepted if pre-registration has not occurred.

8. Bidding Procedures by Mail or Fax: All mail or fax bids shall be signed.

9. Bidding Increments: The bidding increments shall be utilized as specified in Paragraph 15; and if any bid does not so conform, the bid will be lowered to the highest increment lower than the mail bid. Non-internet bids (such as, for example only, bids from the podium, fax, mail, or telephone bids) shall be treated similarly to floor bids in that the bidding increments shall be utilized; and if the bid does not so conform, the bid will be lowered to the highest increment that is lower than the bid. Any Bidder may once in an auction for a particular lot bid a “half-increment”. Once a “half-increment” bid is accepted no other half-increment bids will be accepted on that particular lot. No “buy” or “unlimited” bids will be accepted. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein the auctioneer may solicit or accept bids that are not incremental in nature.

10.

Identical Bids: Preference will be given to the bid first received.

11. Execution of Bids by Auctioneer: Auctioneer is not responsible for errors in your bids. CHECK YOUR BIDS BEFORE SUBMITTING THEM TO THE AUCTIONEER. Auctioneer is not responsible for any failure in executing mail or fax bids received on the day of the auction or later. All written bids should be received two business days before the auction. Auctioneer is not responsible for proper execution of bids submitted by telephone, mail, FAX, email, Internet, or in person, once the auction begins. Electronically placed bids may not be withdrawn.

12. Technology Failure: In the event that auctioneer experiences an outage of the Internet, or telephone service the auctioneer may extend the time for bidding on any lot in the auction. The auctioneer reserves the right to “take a break” for any reason during the course of the auction.

13. Delivery of Lots: Lots won by Bidders will not be delivered on the day of the auction. All items must be shipped, or they will be held for pick-up at a time when deemed permissible by local regulations pertaining to the Covid-19 virus.

14. Transfer of Title: Title to any lot shall only transfer after payment is successfully received in full by the auctioneer, including the Buyer’s Premium, any sales tax applicable, and any shipping or other charges.

16. Auctioneer May Submit Items to Auction: The auctioneer, his employees or affiliates, may consign items to the auction.

17. Auctioneer May Grant Concessions to Consignors or Bidders: The auctioneer, in his discretion, may extend guarantees, loans, or advances to consignors. The auctioneer reserves the right to extend additional credit by way of extended payment terms at its sole discretion.

18. Minimum or Nominal Bids: The auctioneer will set a minimum bid before a lot can be sold. Bids below the minimum bid may not be accepted or recognized by the auctioneer. Further, nominal bids, or small opening bids, or very nominal advances in the bidding may not be recognized by the auctioneer, in its sole discretion. Any lot not receiving any recognized bid shall be passed.

19. Winner of Lot: The highest qualified bidder recognized by the auctioneer shall be the Buyer. In the event of a tie bid, the bid received first by the auctioneer shall prevail. If there is a dispute among Bidders, the auctioneer may in his sole and absolute discretion re-offer the lot. There are times when a bid may not be recognized by the auctioneer; in that situation the recognized bid will be the winning bid regardless of whether or not the competing, but unrecognized bid, may have been higher. The auctioneer may in his absolute discretion re-open the bidding immediately after closing a lot to accept any bid in error not previously recognized.

20. Good Faith Bidding: Auctioneer reserves the right to honor any bid or to limit the amount of any bid. All bids must be made in good faith. A bid is not made in good faith, if it is made by an insolvent or irresponsible person, a minor, or if made in excess of any applicable credit limit.

21. Lots: All lots will be sold in numerical order (unless a lot is re-offered) and will not be broken. Auctioneer reserves the right to withdraw, prior to the close of the entire auction, any lot.

22. Rescission of Sale of Lot: Auctioneer reserves the right to rescind the sale of any lot in the event of non-payment, disputed ownership, clerical error, clerical omission in exercising bids and reserves, or for any other reason in the auctioneer’s sole and absolute discretion.

23. Lots Sold After Auction: In some cases lots will be sold after the auction. The Terms and Conditions apply to those sales as well.

24. Payment in Dollars: All sales are strictly for cash; and payment must be made in United States Dollars.

25. Amount of Payment: All deliveries, and transfers of title, are subject to the full payment of all monies due for the lot, including the payment of the separate Buyer's Premium. The Buyer's Premium shall be 18% of the highest successful recognized bid for inperson, phone, or absentee bidding; 21% for bids placed through internet platforms. Auctioneer retains the Buyer's Premium as its own property.

26. Payment Terms: Payment is due upon the closing of the auction sessions, or upon presentation of an invoice. If payment in full is not received within (7) calendar days after the close of the auction, or within (5) calendar days of the invoice date, whichever is later, the auctioneer may in its sole and absolute discretion, void the sale. If the sale is voided for non-payment the successful bidder shall still owe the auctioneer its fees. Sales tax will be collected from any successful bidder unless the appropriate certificate is on file with the auctioneer at least five business days before the first date set for the auction. If the successful bidder choses to send an “echeck”, electronic funds transfer, or ACH payment, and it does not clear, the bidder authorizes the auctioneer to use the credit card on file. If payment is not made the auctioneer reserves the right to sell the lot to any under-bidder or in any future auction; any difference in the realized proceeds shall be the responsibility of the non-paying successful first bidder.

27. Pick Up, Shipping, and Insurance Concerns: It is the Buyer's responsibility to pick up the lot being purchased, or make arrangements at his own cost, for packing, shipping, and handling. It is the Buyer's duty and obligation to insure the lot from the date that title transfers to the successful Bidder, i.e., upon the receipt of full payment by the Auctioneer (the "TRANSFER DATE").

Risk of loss passes to the Buyer on the TRANSFER DATE. Delivery costs and insurance during delivery are the responsibility of the Buyer. Frames are sold as-is. Auctioneer is not responsible for damage to a framed item during shipment. Such breakage shall not be the basis for return for any lot. All items must be shipped, or will be held for pick-up at a time when deemed permissible by local regulations pertaining to the Covid-19 virus.

28. Interest: Any unpaid invoice will bear interest at the highest rate allowed by California law.

29. Attorney’s Fees: In the event that it in necessary for the auctioneer to employ an attorney the successful Bidder agrees to pay reasonable attorney’s fees and costs.

30. Security Interest Granted: The successful Bidder grants a security interest in the lot being sold to secure the payment of the invoice. The successful bidder grants a possessory lien as well to the auctioneer. Auctioneer shall have the rights granted under Article 9 of the California Commercial Code including but not limited to the right of sale.

31. No Warranties: NO WARRANTY, WHETHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, IS MADE WITH RESPECT TO ANY DESCRIPTION IN THE CATALOGUE OR ON THE DAY OF AUCTION. Descriptions are only being presented for the benefit of those bidders who have not had the opportunity to view the lots prior to bidding and no description in the catalogue shall create any warranty. Color variations are to be expected and are not the basis for any return of any lot. Auctioneer is only selling the right, title, and interest of any lot that has been consigned to the Auctioneer by virtue of any consignment agreements. The Auctioneer disclaims any warranty of fitness or merchantability.

32. Disclaimer of Damages; Sole Remedies: Auctioneer disclaims any damages, consequential or otherwise. Auctioneer shall not be responsible for consequential damages, incidental damages, compensatory damages, or any other damages. Up to the date that the auctioneer pays the consignor (45 days after the close of the auction sessions), and in the event that Auctioneer cannot deliver a lot, or if it is established that the lot lacks title, or some other transfer or condition issue is claimed, the sole remedy of the Bidder up to a date six months after the close of the auction sessions shall be the rescission of the sale and the refund of any amount paid by the Buyer. After the consignor is paid by the auctioneer the sole remedy of the Buyer is against the consignor, and vice versa.

33. Statements are Opinions: In consideration of participation in the auction, and the placing of a bid, Bidder expressly releases auctioneer, its officers, directors, employees, affiliates, outside experts, and attorneys the (”RELEASEES”) from any and all claims, causes of action, in law or in equity, direct or indirect, known or unknown that he/she/it may have with respect to the auction, the catalogue, the conduct of the auction, or the lots being purchased. By not complying with the terms of this Release, Bidder waives any and all claims against the RELEASEES. A bidder or buyer acknowledges that there is a risk that subsequent to the execution of this Agreement, one or more of them will discover facts or will discover, suffer, or incur claims and/or damages relating to the subject matter of this release, which were unknown or unanticipated at the time of the auction, which, if known on that date may have materially affected their respective decisions to give the herein release. Despite this knowledge and understanding, each bidder and buyer agrees that it is assuming the risk of such unknown and unanticipated facts and claims, and in connection herewith, each hereby expressly waives any and all rights under California Civil Code Section 1542, which section has been explained to and is understood by each party and which reads as follows: “A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor.”

34: Arbitration: By placing a bid in the auction, a Bidder agrees to the dispute resolution set forth herein. All disputes shall be arbitrated by the American Arbitration Association in Los Angeles County, California. Costs shall be split equally among all parties.

This replaces the right to go to court, including the right to a jury trial.

35. Prohibited Activities: Any agreement between consignors and bidders to sell by private sale any lot, or to effect a non-sale of an item at auction is prohibited and auctioneer reserves the right to collect from the bidder the Buyer’s Premium.

36. Special Notice: Auctioneer has in compliance with Title 2.95 of the California Civil Code, Section 1812.600 posted with the California Secretary of State a bond. The auction is being conducted in compliance with Section 2338 of the California Commercial Code and Section 535 of the California Penal Code.

37. SALE OF AUTOGRAPHED MEMORABILIA: AS REQUIRED BY LAW, A DEALER WHO SELLS TO A CONSUMER ANY MEMORABILIA DESCRIBED AS BEING AUTOGRAPHED MUST PROVIDE A WRITTEN CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY AT THE TIME OF SALE. THIS DEALER MAY BE SURETY BONDED OR OTHERWISE INSURED TO ENSURE THE AUTHENTICITY OF ANY COLLECTIBLE SOLD BY THIS DEALER. 38.
