(Disneyland, 1967) Extremely rare complete set of the first postcards issued for the Pirates of the Caribbean attraction in 1967. Walt Disney was so taken with Marc Davis' concept paintings for the attraction, he insisted that his actual work be used in the promotions leading up to the ride opening. Walt commissioned the Pirates of the Caribbean souvenir program and this set of 12 postcards before his death. The cards were available in only one place in the world, from a custom vending machine in the pieces of eight shop at the exit to the attraction. Complete sets are quite rare, and this set has been professionally mounted and framed with background elements to provide a truly amazing showcase for the pieces. Each card is in fine unused condition. Framed size is 29" x 33" overall.
