Vintage Walt Disney Movie Poster Jigsaw Puzzles by Golden

In the 1990s, Walt Disney released a series of movie poster-themed jigsaw puzzles with the company Golden. Yes, that’s the same company that produced the Little Golden Books of days gone by. 

Each of these puzzles features an iconic animated Disney movie’s poster and, because each one is comprised of 300 big puzzle pieces, it comes together to make a fairly large puzzle of 2 by 3 feet.

These puzzles are a great addition to any Disney fan’s collection, whether you collect only items related to one movie or you collect items related to any Disney movie. The choice is yours. You can choose to display them once they are built or to build them time and time again. 

While intended for older children, they are also a fun puzzles to work as an adult. Honestly, when I am looking for an easier puzzle, I love working these puzzles.

My latest puzzle was the Beauty and the Beast one. It was a fun journey into the magic and romance of this classic story. I loved snapping into place all of the pieces with their iconic characters though to my chagrin, my puzzle was missing a piece!

There are quite a few of these puzzles available. I found thirteen. Here's my list:

101 Dalmatians – Mostly white with Cruella
101 Dalmatians – With Cruella, a car and a full moon
Aladdin
Beauty and the Beast
Cinderella
Jungle Book, The
Lion King, The
Little Mermaid, The
Pinocchio
Pocahontas
Rescuers Down Under
Rocketeer
Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs

Please note that this list may not be complete. If you know of other puzzles in this series, be sure to let me know. Also, some of these puzzles are rarer than others. In particular, it might be harder to locate Cinderella, Rescuers Down Under and Rocketeer. In any case, you can look on eBay to see which of these Walt Disney Golden puzzles are available now by clicking right here.

The Story of Walt Disney World Book Review

Walt Disney World enthusiasts are always wanting to learn more about one of the world's most famous destinations.  The Story of Walt Disney World is a big square paperback book with 50 pages of information, pictures and illustrations from the park and bears the date of October 25, 1971 on the first page. I expect that it was released as a souvenir to celebrate the opening of the park, which occurred on October 1, 1971.

It opens with a dedication taken from the plaque in Town Square on Main Street at Walt Disney World from Roy Disney O. Disney that reads, "Walt Disney World is a tribute to the philosophy and life of Walter Elias Disney...and to the talents, the dedication and the loyalty of the entire Disney organization that made Walt Disney's dream come true. May Walt Disney World bring Joy and Inspiration and New Knowledge to all who come to this happy place...a Magic Kingdom where the young at heart of all ages can laugh and play and learn together."  If you have experienced the park, you know that they Disney delivered.

Today, the book offers up lots of pictures, information and even a map of what the park looked like in 1971. It would make a wonderful gift idea for anyone who has fond memories of visiting the park or for someone who is interested in the park's history. You will find The Story of Walt Disney World on eBay by clicking right here.
