To celebrate the 100th anniversary of the founding of The Walt Disney Company, we are showcasing objects from the museum’s collection which highlight important moments in Walt’s career.
The centerpiece of Walt’s ambitious plan for Walt Disney World Resort as we know it today was EPCOT—an acronym for Experimental Prototype Community of Tomorrow—which was to be a master-planned city based on modernist ideas in urban planning. These early concept drawings show Walt’s thinking as he developed ideas for this utopian planned community.
This napkin was found—crumpled in the trash—by Walt’s gardener, who stored them in a safe deposit box for many years. The museum acquired the drawings in 2011 from the gardener’s son. Diane Disney Miller, recognizing her father’s handwriting, confirmed that Walt himself drew these sketches.
Please help by signing, sharing and chipping in whatever you want, to make this place become a reality.
