CONGRATULATIONS TO OUR 900th GUEST!

QUESTION:
Oops forgot to say in the above post that he is a 5 1/4" tall Mickey Mouse Banjo playing bisque figurine

ANSWER:
This is likely a George Borgfeldt bisque figurine from the 1930's. Be careful though... Disney sold reproductions of these pieces at Disneyland in the early 1990's... They sold at clearance in the Disneyland Hotel for only $5.00! Originals can fetch $100 - $250 or more... so be careful!

HI! I have a Disneyland secret panel chest from 1969 or 1970. I have seen many on ebay that are described as 6 steps to open. Mine (I am the original owner) has the original instructions and it is 31 steps to open, the 31st step being the little drawer sliding out. I am just curious of the value of this one. Thanks for any info you can give me! Brenda

ANSWER:
We are aware of three sizes of boxes, offered at both Disneyland and later at Walt Disney World. Yours would be the earliest and largest of the Disneyland Haunted Mansion boxes. Estimated value: $100 - $250, depending upon condition.

Hi,
Came across this pin. It is unmarked. Does that mean it was not done by Disney? It looks older as Donald has buttons on the front of his shirt and I'm trying to figure out a time period for it.
I've search the pic site with no luck and many other websites, but not coming up with any matches.
It has a clear layer over the top and it has yellowed, enameled comes to mind but I'm not sure if that is the correct term for this.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks!

Hi,
I used to work for Disneyland. Not the best experience as far as work, in such, I'm looking to rehome a hard to find shirt, that is given to Upper management who work in Health, fire and safety. It is a button down, oxford, blue with the logo on the left hand side. Never worn, size XL. Kept it to save, but decided to sell. It has the cast member tag on the inside. Where would I sell such an item? What area? As you will see, I'm not a normal ebay seller or buyer, so I'm novice..but I've been told this is the best place to sell this item. I worked in the risk management dept around the same time that young man was killed on the train, at Disneyland, Which is also when I left.
Thanks,
Pat

ANSWER:
We'd post this item at the Disneyana / Contemporary / Cast Member Exclusives category. Prices are somewhat unpredictable, but we'd expect it to sell for $40- $75.

Good luck!

ANSWER:
Many of the pins issued at Disneyland theme parks in the mid-1980's have begun to yellow... wiping out the top tier collectors who used to collect items of this era. It's all about condition... condition... condition. Typically, they will sell for $3 - $5 each.

Dave, It is so nice of you to answer sooooo many of these questions. It takes a lot of time and dedication to keep this up, especially for how long you have done it.
That is very thoughtful of you to share your great Disneyana knowledge with so many people.
Thank You!

Dave, I have a few items that I would like to know their approximate value...1. A Walt Disney World Collectors plate - the back of the plate is marked Walt Disney Productions Japan, with a black upside-down triangle with what appears to be 2 interlocking D's. I believe we purchased it at the Park in the 1970's. I was young then , so not exactly sure about that. it has a picture of Cinderella's castle on the front with gold trim. The next 2 items are 33 1/3 albums -both 1972 Walt Disney Productions "A Disneyland long-playing record" Bambi & Heidi...Both in mint condition with original album covers in mint condition...What I am MOST interested in finding info about is the Winnie the Pooh Bear I have...I have had it since I was born "1970" ...it is not in the best condition as it was and still is my favorite bear...it is a bean bag bear with hard plastic black eyes...I remember at one time having some type of red shirt...I would really love to find information to see if by chance anyone would happen to have the same bear for sale some where...PLEASE HELP....I may have other Disney Albums, and would even being willing to trade if anyone were interested...

Thank you for your time
Michelle
any info can be forwarded to my e-mail shelby_re@yahoo.com

ALL NEW MATERIAL WOOD BY-PRODUCT MADE IN JAPAN. He is about 7" long. He's wearing yellow w/ red band, Dapper Dan type of hat. his body is red & is wearing a white/yellowish (color has faded) tuxedo jacket w/ blue bowtie, and white gloves. The material appears to be velvet of some sort. (not Steiff). His arms bend back and forth. I would appreciate any information that you might have such as year it is from and value. Any questions, please ask. THANKS!!!!

Can you tell me anything about this item? Were they supposed to be strung together at one time? Marked WD and MOMA. Thanks for any direction!

Hi. I recently came across a vintage (preserved) ticket. It reads:

No. 01879 Victoria Mickey Mouse Club
Name:_____________
Address:___________
You must bring this card every week.

Surprises every week (then 6 check boxes)
National Ticket Co., Shamokin, PA

Do you know anything about these? If so, are how old and are they worth anything? Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.
