(Disneyland, 1955) Davy Crockett was a five-part series which aired on ABC in 1955 as part of the “Disneyland” TV show. The series starred Fess Parker as Davy Crockett and Buddy Ebsen as his side-kick, George Russel. The show was an unexpected success for Disney and spawned the Crockett coon-skin cap craze. Wanting to capitalize on the show's success, the Davy Crockett frontier museum became a marquee attraction just inside the Frontierland entrance when the park opened in 1955. This Tomahawk with an actual stone blade was identified as a prop from the TV series when sold by the studio in the 1990s, but more likely a prop from the museum at Disneyland. Measures 22.5”x8.5”x1.5”. It has leather straps and a wooden handle. In good condition with wear and aging to the leather and other decorations.
