Walt Disney World The Vacation Kingdom of the World

“Walt Disney World is a tribute to the philosophy and life of Walter Elias Disney… and to the talents, the dedication, and the loyalty of the entire Disney organization that made Walt Disney’s dream come true. May Walt Disney World bring Joy and Inspiration and New Knowledge to all who come to this happy place…a Magic Kingdom where the young at heart of all ages can laugh and play and learn – together. Dedicated this 25th day of October, 1971” – Roy O. Disney, text on verso. This fun poster map was issued in 2001 to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Orlando’s Walt Disney World amusement park. A beautiful pictorial overview depicts the grounds as they would have been seen upon opening in 1971.
