Disney Fans Will Want To Read ‘Walt Disney Treasures: Personal Art and Artifacts from The Walt Disney Family Museum’
The Walt Disney Family Museum has announced that a new book titled Walt Disney Treasures: Personal Art and Artifacts From the Walt Disney Family Museum will go on sale on October 1, 2024, to coincide with the museum’s 15th anniversary.
The upcoming book will celebrate the legacy of Walt Disney through iconic objects that represent his life and career.
“Through historical research, firsthand accounts, and Walt’s own words, readers will uncover treasured artifacts that tell the true story of Walt Disney and his family, as well as the significance of each item to Walt’s personal and professional life,” the book’s official description reads.
Every Item Tells a Story
Some of the items showcased in the book are from The Walt Disney Family Museum galleries. Others, however, have never been seen by the public.
“Every item featured in this book tells a story—some that are well-known Disney lore, and others that are rarely told—each representing an important brick that helped build a global empire, but also exploring who the person Walt Disney truly was,” says Miller.
Among the featured treasures in the book are Walt’s handwritten designs of EPCOT, a bronzed hat he gifted to his wife Lillian, concept art for original Disneyland attractions, and Walt’s individual collection of Academy Awards.
Written by Walter E.D. Miller and the staff of The Walt Disney Family Museum, Walt Disney Treasures will be a must-have for any Disney fan.
