I need some help from anybody who is obsessed with the Disney Attraction Posters!!!!

My parents are heading down there really soon and I want them to pick me up another poster. The bad thing is, I don't know which one I want, and I can't remember what is available for puchase.

If anybody can provide me with an internet link to where I can find a selction of posters from WALT DISNEY WORLD I would totally appreciate it.

Have a good one!!!

Hi Brett,

I searched on the Web for you and was unable to find a listing anywhere, however, there's an easy way you can find this out. Simply call Walt Disney World Merchandising at 407-363-6200 and they can give you the listing of which posters are still available.

My two sons each picked one out during our August trip. They got the Haunted Mansion and Tomorrowland. They were each $30. If you haven't seen them, they are the best, at least in my sons' opinion. And I'd have to agree! ;)

Wow! I know what i'm bringing back next trip! I never saw these posters until the last day we were at Magic Kingdom, and didn't even think they would be for sale somewhere! I thought the Splash Mountain & Haunted Mansion one's were outstanding! I haven't found anyone on-line selling them yet...keep us posted if you find somewhere! graemlins/mickey.gif

Even better than just attraction posters is what the Disney Gallery offers out in Disneyland (and what I'm hoping will spread to WDW). They've been experimenting with a system called Print on Demand and it's just simply amazing! (Print on Demand is nothing new to the art world, but it's fantastic what they're doing with it out at Disneyland).

The reason I bring this up is that at least through January 5th, the Disney Gallery is featuring the Haunted Mansion (both the original and the Haunted Mansion Holiday which means a lot of Nightmare Before Christmas exclusive artwork). I wish there was an online gallery where you could see what's available because if you're a fan of the Haunted Mansion in particular, can you imagine getting a nice print of the stretch room paintings to hang on your wall?

Or what about some of the original concept artwork (Marc Davis and Claude Coats) created for the mansion? Or some of the original concepts for Jack Skellington and Nightmare before Christmas (I actually have several pieces that I picked up including this fantastic Jack Skellington looking gloomy in an electric chair printed not on paper, but on canvas!) Worthy of hanging up in a museum exhibit somewhere (the quality is that good).

Ok, getting back to Print on Demand- at least for the Disneyland attractions, you can actually order the regular attraction posters on either art paper or on canvas! (not just the poster prints like at WDW) and in different sizes- up to 36" x 48". I believe the WDW posters are all at 24" x 36"

A 36" x 48" attraction poster done by Print on Demand from the Disney Gallery would be about $55 on art paper, or $170 on canvas (not framed- you'd have to take it to a professional framer to have it properly stretched, etc). You can also get 18" by 24", 24" by 32" and 27" by 36" via print on demand, or you can also order the pre-printed Disneyland attraction posters at 36" by 54" (full size like the ones hanging up on Main Street) but these are increasingly rare as they transition to Print on Demand.

The number for the Disney Gallery direct (at Disneyland) is (714) 781-7531 or call Disneyland Delivears at (800) 362-4533. Another benefit- no sales tax outside of CA and free FedEx shipping!
