New Postcard Folder

My fellow Disney collecting buddy, Mike, just returned from Disneyland with a bag-full of goodies for me including a new postcard folder.

The ten cards in this collection are all black and white or sepia-toned. Eight of the cards are contemporary with the ninth card being an old photo of Walt Disney which was probably taken in the early 30s. While the side binding states that there are ten cards, the last one is actually the back of the folder that shows all the cards and also contains the UPC code. I wouldn't count this one as a usable card. The cards can be removed by tearing along the perforated edge that links them together.

A pretty cool collection of cards. My only complaint is that the backgrounds in the photos are nondescript which allows Disney to sell the cards in any of their theme parks. The backs of the cards are actually stamped "Disney Parks". The entire collection can be seen within this group.

OMG your site is radical! I love it. I mean it. I really like your blog. It's interesting and hysterical all at the same time.

Do you remember the disney logo and opening from the little mermaid. it's kind of scary and weird. it's on youtube somewhere. anyway I've got few blogs myself, but I just started a new one that I'm really excited about. It's called Top My Blog and it's a community based blog that let's other bloggers submit and share their blogs with other users.
Here's a link: Top My Blog

Thanks!
