Disney and more open its vault - Private Sale PART THREE !



As You know i'm a Disney fan since a long time and in one of my previous life as journalist i was invited at many Disney events and park's Grand Opening. Many of you asked me if i had kept interesting press material and collectibles from these events and today i've decided to open my personal "vault" and put on sale in exclusivity for my Disney and more readers rare press collectibles! Some of these collectors have an affordable price, and few others are more expensive as they are really rare collectibles.

How does this private sale works? Very simple: from the moment the collectible you're interested by is still listed below OR if it's not written "ITEM SOLD", it means that it's still available and you can buy it. All prices are in U.S dollars except on the four first items where they are in Euros. If you live in Europe, thanks to the change euro/dollar deduct 30% of the price in dollars to know the price in euros.

How do you order and pay for it? Just email me at: lawrence55@wanadoo.fr and send the payment of the total amount including shipping by Paypal. Paypal payment must be sent to the same email adress: lawrence55@wanadoo.fr

For any questions, just email me at: lawrence55@wanadoo.fr . Please note that sometime i might not be able to answer you immediately but generally i always answer in the next day or so.


There we go for the collectible items! Note that all "press kits or media guides" have a dimension approximately 12.5" x 9.5". There is a lot of different items and from the top you'll find rare press events collector's items about: Disneyland, Disney's California Adventure, Walt Disney World, Epcot, Animal Kingdom, Tokyo Disney Sea, Hong Kong Disneyland, Disneyland Paris, Walt Disney Studios, Disney Animation, and also about Islands of Adventure, Universal Studios, Star Trek Experience, and more!
