This was at the end of a DPB YouTube video about lounges around the resort. Has anyone ever seen the font presented this way before for “walt”?

That...doesn't look right with Walt's first name not in his signature.
It should either be his full signature and "World" or just "Disney World".

I concur. That's messed up.

They've been using this 'alternative' logo for at least a year now, using the Waltograph font only on 'Disney' to emphasize the word 'Disney' itself in the logo.

I can add that the Waltograph font doesn't really reflect Walt's signature.
Today’s the first time it caught my eye, it looks so odd. Have you seen it mostly in the parks blog?

Parks Blog, TA sites, various areas actually. The impression I've had is that they use this logo when referencing the entire resort, including hotels, but not when referencing the Parks specifically.

I think some in the company have for years tried to downplay "Walt" since hes been gone for some time. They want to show the company has moved forward, progressed, advanced past the "Walts" years and although he started it and it holds the Disney name, it is no longer Walts. Disney is now more than Walt and his outdated style/positions. Thus the fading prominence of Walt.

Just bring back the 80s promo home video one without "home video".

I don't think I've ever seen that logo.
Waltograph isn't a cursive font.
