7 Walt Disney Archives Treasures
Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937) – Where Do the Stories Come From? Gallery
Check out this Dutch Language prop book from Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs! The Walt Disney Archives shares that it archives “many prop storybooks that ‘bookend’ classic films, like this one featured in the Dutch version of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937).”
Mary Poppins (1964) – Where Do the Stories Come From? Gallery
Mary Poppins happens to be my all-time favorite Disney movie and this item is from one of the most magical parts of the story. This is the carousel horse ridden by none other than Disney Legend Dick Van Dyke, who plays Bert in the film!
Aladdin (1992) – The Illusion of Life Gallery
A couple of maquettes will be on display at the exhibition, including Disney villain Jafar, from Aladdin. These sculpted models allow animators to view characters from every angle.
It’s an invaluable three-dimensional tool!
Ratatouille (2007) – The Illusion of Life Gallery
Guests will also find a maquette of Remy from Ratatouille in The Illusion of Life Gallery! Disney invites visitors to “discover more about the creation of Disney heroes, villains, and sidekicks that have inspired and entertained audiences across the globe for 100 years—from the first sketch to the finished animation.”
Avengers: Infinity War (2018) – The Spirit of Adventure and Discovery Gallery
If you’re a Disney fan who loves Pixar, Star Wars, or Marvel, you’ll enjoy The Spirit of Adventure and Discovery gallery. Iron Man’s helmet from Avengers: Infinity War is just one of the many treasures you’ll find inside!
Hong Kong Disneyland’s Castle of Magical Dreams – Your Disney World: A Day in the Parks Gallery
A Disney exhibit would not be complete without a tribute to the Parks! Castles are the crown jewel of Disney’s Theme Parks.
Speaking of which, a model of Hong Kong Disneyland’s Castle of Magical Dreams will be on display in the Your Disney World: A Day in the Parks gallery!
Disneyland Park’s Mr. Toad’s Wild Ride – Your Disney World: A Day in the Parks Gallery
Mr. Toad’s Wild Ride is one of our family favorites at Disneyland, and this next item is epic! An actual attraction vehicle will be on display at the exhibit, transporting you back to Fantasyland at The Happiest Place on Earth!
What an amazing lineup of timeless Disney artifacts. These 7 Walt Disney Archives treasures are exclusive to Disney100: The Exhibition’s European Tour.
We can’t wait to see them on display when it comes to Munich next month!
