Disneyland Collectibles - Finding a Good Home?

Hi everyone!

A very close friend of mine has come across some Disneyland collectibles whilst dealing with the estate of a family member, and I volunteered to help him figure out the best way to value and sell them to a collector who appreciates their rarity and special nature.

Most of the collection consists of old Disneyland Ticket Books dating from what appears the mid-60s. The most interesting to me is the Mr Lincoln ticket, which appears to be a pre-opening admission?

I’ve never seen one like that before.

The last one, however, is incredibly unique. I don’t have the story behind it yet, but will post as soon as I know more. It appears to be a hand drawn Mickey, signed by Roy Disney.

At first glance, the signature matches.

If anyone has any experience valuing and selling items, I’d love some advice.

Thanks in advance!

The ticket books look interesting. I'm not an expert but I would guess that the Mickey wasn't drawn by Roy Disney, I don't think he drew at all. I would guess that Roy Williams, who was one of the adults on the original Mickey Mouse Club and animator, would be more likely have drawn and signed it. A quick internet search with my hunch about Roy Williams led me to this picture. I just Googled Roy Williams Disney and then clicked on images and this picture to George showed up.
