From our Friends at D23
Founded in 1970, the Walt Disney Archives has collected, preserved, and shared the history of Walt Disney and the Company he founded. In the decades since, the Archives’ collections have grown in size and scope—not unlike the Walt Disney Company itself—and its staff remains committed to safeguarding the priceless artifacts, stories, and treasures for future generations to study, learn from, and delight in.
In celebration of American Archives Month this past October, the staff of the Walt Disney Archives revealed via Instagram some of their favorite props, costumes, artwork, merchandise, and other historical objects from their department’s vast collection. Join us as we highlight these treasures for D23 Members and show how each item has made profound emotional connections with your fellow Disney fans on the Archives staff.
D23 posted a blog of all of the Archivests favorites; you can find that here; we like Becky’s Tour of the 50th archive at the Contemporary resort during the Walt Disney World 50th Anniversary celebration; check it out below
