A rare promotional press kit for one of the last projects personally supervised by Walt Disney.
Mineral King is a regional mountain range in the California Sierras where Disney had plans to open a themed recreational resort. The project was never to-be, through major protests by naturalist organizations and activist groups such as the Sierra Club. In spite of Walt's assurances to exercise heavy conservation, the project was defeated. In a positive note for Disney fans, the Country Bear Jamboree show came from its initial development for Mineral King. Folder contains 8 glossy photos, a 7 page "master plan for the development of Mineral King" packet, and 20 other misc. pages of information and supplements related to the project. In fine condition, with mild amounts of edge wear to some pages and photos.
