Exhibition: Millennium 2000

[Anthony]

On the fourth day of Christmas Euro Souvenirland gave to me... even more daily memorabilia!

In the long-standing tradition of the iTunes 12 Days of Christmas promotion (that's where the song comes from, right?), I've decided to carry on and post another set of memorabilia items each morning from now until 6th January, which might also help relieve the boredom of these odd days between Christmas and New Year.

Since we're already on the fourth day, here's Days 1-4:



Tomorrow and Friday, we go back exactly 10 years to the start of a new millennium, Disneyland Paris-style...

Day 5 and we're onto the millennium specials. Here's the first of two special newsletters handed out to Cast Members in run up to the big night, giving info about the ImagiNations Parade premiere and events schedule:



In a few hours, go back to 31st December 1999 and pick up your commemorative guidemap...

Day 6 - the full millennium park guide:

Day 7 - the first Cast Member magazine of the new millennium:



Lots of great pictures of the New Year's Eve events but also the huge storm, remember that?

loved this addition!

Was very intresting reading about the Storm Damage tio parts of DLP and how bad it was!

NOW if only we could give this againt but to hit Stuidio 1 and get rid of the dam dam scaffolding!

That is a great issue, isn't it? The storm also destroyed some kind of giant Mickey statue that used to shine a laser towards the castle... am I remembering that right?

Day 8:

Yes, we missed the last few days of Christmas in the end but I'll make up for it.

Blame the snow and other distractions of a new year.

Two final Millennium items for now:



The next memorabilia "mini season" of new items begins on 16th January... a date of much significance.

I'll create a new topic whenever we have a series of new items like this (I'll possibly do a WDS series towards March for example), but between these there will also be general memorabilia additions, which will be posted in the main topic stickied at the top. Hope that makes sense. There'll be one tomorrow, the first ever business/conference brochure from 1991.
