(Disneyland, c.1956-1994) A hand-painted window shutter prop from Fantasyland's Skyway Chalet. Guests would board the Skyway in Fantasyland from the ornate and colorfully painted Chalet before enjoying a stunning aerial view of the park as they pass through the Matterhorn and debark in Tomorrowland. This window decoration is believed to have been installed during the opening of the Chalet and was touched up or re-painted over the years as needed. The prop was removed following the closure of the Skyway in 1994. Composed of hand-painted vintage wood with an attached hinged portion of wood on the reverse, the prop measures approximately 30"x9". The condition is good, with some expected fading to the color from age, and some general surface wear throughout. There is a thin 2.5" crack at the top-edge.
