Just picked up a neat old 70s Disneyland Guide. I only collect Disney World items myself, but this little piece caught my eye. It was produced by the INA Service and the Carefree Corner for the 1970-1971 season. Inside are around 20 pages of great details about the park, how the ticket prices for each attraction work, attraction details etc. Lots of great maps too of how the park used to look.

Because it's Disneyland, it's up for bid on eBay. A bargain with only a 99 cent reserve! I hope it goes to a good home!

Eyes & Ears Collection....

Walt Disney World is a magical place. And in that place are over 60,000 Cast Members that make the magic happen and dreams come true!

As a corporation it is important to dissemenate information promptly and to each and every member of your staff on an ongoing basis. And how does WDW do it? Through their internal newspaper (or really a magazine) called Eyes & Ears. In each issue are great articles, photos, ads etc about Walt Disney World. A sort of "behind the scenes look" at the World as seen through the eyes of a Disney employee (excuse me, Cast Member!). The paper began with the opening of WDW back in 1971 and I believe still continues today. Inside are many of the milestones of the Disney park and they make great collectors items for any Disney collector!

I'm lucky to have just purchased approx. 400 issues of Eyes & Ears from an ex-castmember in Florida. I kept one of each issue for my personal collection and reference and will be listing the rest on eBay and in my online store ( www.postcardguy.com ). Check out my auctions often, as I'll be starting them with no reserve!      

My New Blog....

Growing up I've always been a huge fan of Walt Disney movies and everything Disney. Our family  loves to visit Walt Disney World and for years I've collecting items associated with Walt Disney and especially WDW.

I've just created this blog to share some of my collection with everyone. I'm always on the hunt for Disney related items to add to my collection and for resale in my online store and in my weekly auctions on eBay.

I especially enjoy my huge collection of Walt Disney World postcards from 1971 until present. I've lost count, but I now have over 8 binders of WDW and Disney related postcards! I'm always looking to add a new card to the collection.  

Stay tuned for blogs about my latest finds, auction results, Disney memorabilia rarities and stories of my hunt for "Disneyana"!
