1950's Disneyland Railroad Ticket

This image is not clickable
When Disneyland first opened, Sante Fe and Disneyland Railroad passengers used these elaborate multi-part tickets for passage. Measuring almost 12 inches long, this elaborately decorated ticket was printed before Disneyland's plans were finalized; it includes a stub for the Holidayland station which was never built. In fine condition. And like the ticket says, "No shooting buffalo from the train!" Scan does not show all of Adventureland stub. In good condition, with minor rough edges as shown. Item # 3584, $149
About $15/Month with Free Lay-Away!

Disneyland Railroad Cast Member Item
Click any image for a better view
I love Disney train items! This resin casting- taken from the original mold of the bolster plate from the bogies (axels) of the Disneyland steam trains- was given to longtime Disneyland railroad engineer Bill Clements as a retirement gift. The plate features Disneyland's opening year, 1955 (the railroad was the first ride completed when Disneyland was under construction). The bolster plate is mounted on a solid wood plaque which measures 13" long and 8" tall. Bill Clements name has been added to the base by Disneyland. This is the first time I've been lucky enough to get one of these rare Disneyland Railroad retirement gifts. An uncommon addition to any train collection. Only this one available. Item # 3760, $349

Disneyland Railroad Engineer 10 Year Appreciation Plaque

Click any image for a better view Two of my favorite things- Disneyland and trains! When a Disneyland employee- called a "cast member-" completes 10 years with the company, he or she receives this handsome wall plaque. Since most Disneyland cast members work seasonally or only for a few years during or after college, relatively few every receive this uncommon award. This one was given to Disneyland Railroad engineer William Clements. Made of hardwood and metal, this handsome plaque features Sleeping Beauty castle and and engraved plaque. Measures approximately 9" X 12". In good condition. Item # 3757, $199 About $19/Month with Free Lay-Away!

Trains always fascinated Walt Disney. His uncle was an engineer, and in the summer as a teenage Walt Disney sold newspapers and snacks on the Atchison, Topeka and Sante Fe. Inspired by Disney artists Ollie Johnston and Ward Kimball, and with the help of Disney Studio mechanical genius Roger Broggie, Walt built a miniature live steam train in the Studio's machine shop. After testing on the Studio lot, the train was installed on the property of his home on Carolwood Drive near Beverly Hills in the early 1950's. He called his train the "Carolwood-Pacific," and named it's engine the Lilly Belle in honor of his wife Lillian. Walt's layout included 2,615 feet of track included a 46-foot long trestle and a 90-foot tunnel. Walt delighted in taking his daughters, their neighborhood friends, and Hollywood stars like Kirk Douglas for rides along the CP's rails. Eventually Walt Disney turned his attention to a larger railroad- the one that would en circle Disneyland- and Walt retired the Carolwood Pacific. When the last of the railroad was dismantled a few years after Walt's death, most of the track was given to a Los Angeles live-steam club, and a few sections were stored away by his family and others with close ties (pardon the pun) to the Carolwood Pacific Railroad. This rare section of Walt Disney's Carolwood Pacific train track measures approximately 13" x 13" and is comprised of two aluminum rails attached to five wooden ties. The track is in weathered condition consistent with outdoor use, just as it was when Walt Disney last rode these rails. Rarely does any item formerly owned by Walt Disney come onto the market. Walt Disney's Carolwood Drive home was demolished a few years ago, and now this track is one of the only tangible pieces of that famous property and its live steam railroad available for ownership by a private collector. Walt Disney's Lille Belle engine, tender, and caboose now rest on a longer section of this track in the Walt Disney Family Museum, and barn in which Walt Disney stored his Carolwood Pacific rolling stock has been turned into a museum in Los Angeles. This section of track is indeed a museum piece. Includes the Phil Sears Collectibles Lifetime Guarantee of Authenticity. Item # 2080, $3,995 U.S. shipping $19.95 on this heavy item.

The Ward Kimball Collection


Above: Ward Kimball with Walt Disney	"Ward Kimball, bottom row 2nd from right with the other eight "Walt's 9 Old Men."	Kimball was the only Disney employee Walt Disney called a "genuis.

Of the more than one thousand artists who worked for Walt Disney over the years, he only ever referred to one as a "genius." That was the colorful, eccentric, inventive Ward Kimball. Ward Kimball started with Disney as an artist in the 1930's and continued into the 1980's as a consultant. While his achievements are many, he is popularly known for creating Jiminy Cricket's unmistakable look and being one of Walt's "9 Old Men-" the handful of artists whom Walt considered his most talented and valuable. Kimball also directed Oscar-winning Disney shorts, and continuing on through the 1980's as a consultant on Walt Disney World.

Ward was instrumental in encouraging Walt Disney's love of trains (Kimball ran a full size narrow gauge steam engine in his back yard) and Ward is the only non-family member to vacation alone with Walt Disney; the two train lovers went to a railroad exposition, of course. Disneyland has named it's newest locomotive after Kimball. Many of the items offered below reflect Ward's lifelong love of trains.

Kimball passed away in 2002, and several years later the bulk of his toy and train collection was auctioned, selling for more than $6 million dollars! More recently his wife Betty has been selling the last of his personal collection. Here we are pleased to present these exceptionally rare items from Ward Kimball's famed San Gabriel, CA home. A small piece of Walt Disney - Ward Kimball legacy can be part of your home for a very reasonable price. Included with every item on this page is the Phil Sears Collectibles Lifetime Guarantee of Authenticity stating the item was personally owned by Ward Kimball. Also included is a photocopy of paperwork from Kimball's wife relating to the item. This may be your only remaining opportunity to own a personal item from the collection of Disney legend Ward Kimball!
