(Disneyland, 1983-90) An original prop from Disneyland's "Dumbo Flying Elephants" attraction. This sturdy bronze prop decorated one of the fountain heads for the attraction after the "New Fantasyland" refurbishments in 1983. This fountain head was used until 1990, when the attraction was replaced with an updated version as part of the "Disney Decade Project". While many of Disney's planned expansions for the "Decade Project" were abandoned or unsuccessful, the updated Dumbo attraction was the first completed project in 1990 to start their decade of expansion. The bronze fountain head prop is mounted to a wooden backing with a plaque that reads, "First Disney Decade Project - Disneyland Dumbo 1990". The entire mounted prop measures approximately 15" tall and is in good condition with some tarnishing to the bronze from park use and some scuffs to the wooden backing.
