(Disneyland, 1962) An authorized WED Enterprises, Inc. feasibility study investigating the possibility of a Disneyland-ALWEG Monorail System for the New York World's Fair of 1964-65. Multiple notable firms (including Economics Research Associates, J.B. Allen and Company, Wheeler and Gray, and the Wegematic Corporation) contributed to the engineering and design parameters and specifications, train configuration, construction and installation costs, projections of revenue, operating cost, operating profit, and payout extending to 1973. While payout predictions were high, the project was ultimately not realized, among Walt Disney's other shows prepared for the Fair. Measuring approximately 11.5"x9.25", the 44-page spiral-bound hardcover is in fine condition, exhibiting the minor cover wear. The spine is brittle from age.
