    Disneyland Paris Magical Memorabilia: Last trip To Endor Pin

    February 27th 2016 was the day the March 2016 pin poster for Disneyland Paris started to make waves in the community, with the inclusion of one particular item – the Last Trip To Endor pin. Star Tours was due to close on March 16th, which it did, and this pin limited to 1,000 pieces was released to commemorate that. Soon cries of I need one could be heard all over the world, including from myself. I was lucky enough to get one, and be on that Last trip To Endor, and…

    Disneyland Paris Magical Memorabilia: Cards, Watches, Lip Balm & Cocktail Stirrers

    It’s been a while since I did one of these, but seeing the big box of Disneyland Paris stuff sitting in the lounge after a recent rummage, I thought it would be a good time to delve in and grab some bits, and so here we are. I’ll start with playing cards, of which two sets are featured. The first I bought many years ago, and left me slightly disappointed, but had I looked at the box properly I’d have seen this before I bought them. So what am I talking…

    Disneyland Paris Magical Memorabilia: 15th Anniversary Booklet

    I’m going to guess that this booklet came out in early 2007, given that there is an advert for the release of Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End in May 2007. It’s a 12 page advert for the 15th Anniversary of Disneyland Paris, which showcases what is coming up: a new parade, 2 new attractions, more characters and the introduction of kids under 7 stay and play free. Interesting that it states the celebration will last from April 2007 until March 2008, but actually ran into 2009, much like the…

    Disneyland Paris Magical Memorabilia: 1991 Euro Disneyland Imagineer Pin

    Late night eBay sessions can be the undoing of many a bank account – I’m not sure what I intend to do with the Disneyland Paris keyring I bid on a few days ago, and have apparently just won. As a pin collector, eBay can be a fantastic resource, and so I will keep on telling myself. Last week I found a pin at a great Buy it Now Price that quite frankly I was shocked to see listed so cheaply. I can only guess, that even though I’ve not seen…

    Disneyland Paris Magical Memorabilia: Very Early Euro Disneyland Resort Guide

    Thanks to my friend Christian Sylt, I have a very early resort guide for Disneyland Paris, or Euro Disneyland as it was called then. It’s quite fascinating to look through and see how things have changed. Just look at that map! I guess it does it’s job, but there isn’t much detail, though at the same time I find it utterly charming. I also like the land icons that have long since changed, and also Festival Disney now being Disney Village. If you look at the Discoveryland attractions page, you’ll see…

    Magical Memorabilia: Disneyland Paris Menus

    Over the years I’ve collected boxes full of mementos from Disneyland Paris. Some I have acquired from the parks myself, some from eBay, and I’ve been lucky enough to have people send me stuff from time to time. I thought it was about time I shared my finds with all of you, and so Magical Memorabilia is born. Back in 2006 some friends of mine visited Disneyland Paris and among the stash of Disneyland Paris items they sent me were three menus. There’s the kid’s menus from Manhattan Restaurant in the…
