Walt Disney World's 40th Anniversary Ornaments

By: Nick

On October 1st, 2011, Walt Disney World celebrated its 40th anniversary, and really terrific merchandise was released to commemorate that momentous occasion, including ornaments.

While we did visit on October 1st of that year, I spotted these earlier in the year at The Emporium in the Magic Kingdom, and bought them then and there.

Both collages, especially the one on the ball ornament, appeared on a wide range of merchandise, from t-shirts, hats and bags to address books and photo albums.

I think this Cinderella Castle collage is actually my favorite of the two. This ornament is porcelain and measures about 3.5 inches.

This light weight ornament seems to be made of heavy cardboard, and has a red bow and a 40th anniversary medallion on it's hanger.





Here is to another 40 years of Walt Disney World magic!

  1. Wow, the porcelain one is pretty enough to frame!
    I like the tiny photo of Walt on the round ornament.
