Where's the hidden mickey in the SSE mural?
Look at the numbers on the Spacecraft.
Mine is very big
but it is a bit too big - here`s a smaller version 
And to get an idea of the original size, here`s Bob at work:

What's amazing to me is in both cases they were able to capture the feelings of the attractions so accurately without ever having been on them! Obviously they were painted before either was built!
I mean.. .I'm not stupid.. I know they had concepts and whatever else to work with... but still... pretty amazing.

I wasn't. I figured they would keep it. It's a shame Disney won't give WDI the money to do little things like this anymore.Hey everyone!
I know most of us were worried that it would be painted over when Siemens refurbed SSE in 2007.

^ Have you been on TT yet????
I just watched all my 1984 videos of Future World today. Where was that Horizons mural? I remember it, but I can't place it. I can only remember the kaleidoscoped murals in the entrance.
Shhhh! He doesn't like like to talk about that! :lookaroun

It was right after you turned off the speed ramp.

Bit of a drift here....but don't you love that the larger slave in the Egyptian scene on SSE is the same figure and face that is President Taft at MK's Hall of Presidents?:lol:
Don't ask WDI about that, but yes.:lol:

Robert McCall is awesome, my dad has signed artwork of the spacestation from 2001: A Space Odyssey, the astronauts on the Moon, and Apollo 13 circling the dark side of the Moon.
He also did concept art for Star Trek: The Motion Picture.
Which half?

Thanks, marni. If you could throw the bigger one on a free hosting site like zshare or something I'd be really grateful. I checked through the old souvenier books I've got, but none of them have the mural in their Horizons sections. Otherwise I'd just scan it myself.
The nerd circles I usually run in are comfortable with 5 meg jpgs, mammoth pngs, and so forth, so size isn't really an issue for me. Thanks again for that one, though. It's still a lot better than the one on McCall's site.
