My wife has a hat from when she was a kid that is the same as the girl on the rights. My daughter now sports it proudly. We don't have the heart to tell her it is ugly and worn out.

wow... those pics are ooooooooold

They are all early 70s pics. I am very into the old photos from WDW back then because that is when I first experienced it. So I have been purchasing old photos and scanning my parents old slides.

 

[mrtoad]

Here are some more. I am going to try to link to some pics I loaded on a photogallery I have on-line. I am out of space here.

Fingers are crossed it works.

Here are the 3 little pigs and the big bad wolf from "America on Parade" during the bicentennial celebration.

Here are the aristocats from "America on Parade" during the bicentennial celebration.

Here is Dumbo and I believe it is Timothy Mouse and someone else from "America on Parade" during the bicentennial celebration. Anyone know for sure who is behind Dumbo?

Here is Mickey, Goofy and Donald from "America on Parade" during the bicentennial celebration.

I belive that it's Bongo from Fun & Fancy Free behind Dumbo.

Yeah, I think so too.

Man, why doesn't Disney promotes more of The Aristocats, Lady and the Tramp, 101 Dalmatians (cartoon, NOT THE MOVIE)? Those cats are weird, but if they got the same facelift that Donald did, they'd be swingin', man... :sohappy:

I've never seen that one. My daughter got it as a hand me down, but when we opened box it was something else inside.

Looks like both Bongo and Lulubelle to me. Bongo's the one right behind Dumbo and Lulubelle is over to the left. Both are, as hmppan mentioned, from Fun and Fancy Free.

Gurgi

Do you have a pic of Gurgi. I know he was made, but I dont have a pic of him. Being my favorite character, I would love to see what he looked like. Thanks

 

[mkt]

Gurgi... the Norway Troll... hmm.. sorry bud, don't have any. I'll search around, and see what I can get.

 

[jlk252]

I never considered Gurgi a troll. I mean Gurgi, from the Black cauldron, the little dog like creature always searching for munchies and crunchies. the one who steals Tarans apple.

Ok, I know this is a stupid question, but myself being a HUGE Tigger fan I have always wondered, Why does the character Tigger that we take pictures with have a black nose and the tigger in the movies (the animated ones anyway) have a pink nose? You wouldn't think that it's a big deal, but it makes a huge difference! I feel like the one in the parks is an impostor!

 

[mkt]

gurgi.. oh that one.. no clue.. lol...

amh... for presentation and performer vision...

 

[Amber]

WOW! That was a quick response! Thanks!

 

[spectropluto]

wow!

wow! 5-Day...color me impressed! You DO have quite the collection....then again, I kinda already knew that!
