The Wonderful World Passport of Walt Disney
Walt Disney’s passport
Walt Disney’s 1965 passport is up for sale on eBay. He died just a year and a half after it was issued, and its only use was for a trip to London. The UK premiere of Mary Poppins was on August 23, 1965, just four days after this passport was issued, and that seems a likely use, but the London arrival stamp isn’t shown, and the New York return stamp says September 29. It’s currently at $3,600, and is estimated to close in the neighborhood of $14,400-$21,600 when the auction ends on Saturday. [via TMZ]
I have to have this right now…Somebody lend me $22,000, so I can be super cool AND so you can know a super cool person.
It’s a Win-Win situation, all the way around.
