Exhibition: Walt Disney Studios Park Grand Opening

Postby Anthony » Tue Mar 16, 2010 4:25 pm

Happy birthday, Walt Disney Studios Park! 8 Years old today!

A new exhibition begins today in the Memorabilia section of Euro Souvenirland, collecting items from the park's grand opening year of 2002 with new additions every day for the next week or so.

We begin with the Avant-Premiere (soft opening) guide map from the February and March 2002 park previews. Funny to see that even up to a month before parking opening, Television Production Tour had been determined as "pas interessant". Haha!

A rather nice postcard:

Perhaps there were more in the series? Anyone have them?

Two more items to finish up, an interesting press CD-ROM:

And a load of scans from the Summer 2002 brochure, when the park was introduced:

Only added yesterday because it took so damn long to scan and piece together.

For a new park opening, it's surprisingly hard to find Walt Disney Studios grand opening memorabilia. So if anyone has any other items like these, especially anything with the actual "Grand Opening" logo on it (I've only got a pin), please get in touch... backstage-at-memorabilia.com
