Impressive Original 1950's Steamboat Ride Ticket Signed by The Iconic Father of Disneyland!
A lucky Disneyland guest spotted Walt Disney and asked him to autograph their Mark Twain steamboat ticket! This type of ticket was used at Disneyland during the park's earliest years, so this ticket was likely signed in the 1950's. The Mark Twain's superstructure was built at the Disney Studio in Burbank. The sternwheeler embarked on its maiden voyage on July 13, 1955, four days before the park officially opened, for a private party celebrating Walt and Lillian Disney's 30th wedding anniversary. This close association between Walt and the Mark Twain makes this autographed ticket just that much more special. Ticket measures approximately 4.75" x 2.5". Authenticated and encapsulated by PSA/DNA.
