I bought this glass ball Epcot Center ornament from 1985 at the Columbus Flea Market a couple of years ago.
I am constantly on the lookout for reasonably priced Epcot ornaments on Ebay, but this is the first time I’ve found one at the flea market. And at a price that I couldn’t believe. More on that later.
First let’s take a look at the ornament.
Not the most colorful of ornaments, but I love the graphics, which depict the pavilions existing in Future World at that time.
Here we have, of course, Spaceship Earth with the Monorail going by.
As we turn the ball, we have the Journey Into Imagination…
… and next to that, the Universe of Energy.
Then, maybe the artist realized he was running out of room, so put The World of Motion, and my beloved, and much missed, Horizons, pretty much on top of each other. Next to that is The Land.
A terrific addition to my Epcot collection. And the cost? $.50!
Wow, that was a great deal. And I like the clean line graphics on this ornament! And someone had it in the box since 1985, quite the find.
ReplyDeleteI agree, it is pretty great.
