Treasures of the Walt Disney Archives is a MUST SEE at D23 Expo!

Friday, August 19, 2011

If there is one thing I can't stress enough, it's that the Treasures of the Walt Disney Archives is FANTASTIC! 
The exhibit is 12,000 square-feet, double the size of the D23 Expo in 2009. You will find it at the same location as the first year, but this time you will also go across to the next room where the exhibit will continue on and on. 
The Walt Disney Archives have been working on this exhibit for over a year, building everything from the cases to the mannequins. 
I'd like to spend a little more detail on this, so here is just a small sample until I do. 
 Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland

Hocus Pocus

 Television show LOST

Pirates of the Caribbean 





Tron
 Rocketeer

Mouseketeers

LOTS more pictures to come as this doesn't even represent half of the costumes and props on display. 
If you are going to the D23 Expo this weekend, do yourself a favor and don't miss this!
You'll find Treasures of the Walt Disney Archives located on the second floor.

I was just watching a video of The Treasures of the Walt Disney Archives exhibit. I thing the one thing that I loved the most was the statue of Bette Midler from Hocus Pocus. That used to be my favorite movie when I was a child. I wish so much I could see that in person. I hope you have a picture of it. I know I would love to see a picture! I cant wait to hear about the rest of the weekend!!!
