Found: Walt's designs for Magic Kingdom

Sorry I started another thread for this, but I found some artwork done under Walt's supervision for the "theme park" part of the Florida Project that became WDW. Here's a link...

Notice, it looks pretty similar to what has actually been built. I haven't studied it in detail yet to see what the differences are. If you find any let me know. Or if you find any other of Walt's original plans for the theme park, please post it here.

It gives the 7-Seas Lagoon its true meaning! Look at the theme park... notice there really isn't much there... maybe Walt wasn't so enthused about the theme park part of the plan and his heart wasn't really into that portion?

The park probably doesn't depict much in it simply because it was in such early design stages.
