On this day: August 31 1938: Walt and Roy O. Disney make a $10,000 deposit on 51 acres in Burbank, CA, for a new studio.
I'm reading through CMBaloo's old posts. You're an amazing sentimentalist! Just a true to heart gem! I am so very sorry your attempt to give to the MWers didn't work out with the C33 invite. By the time I read your comment, the thing had already gotten out of hand. I apologize for stepping on your toes on that one. I very much need to make it up to you somehow. You are the source of so much inspiration, imagination, and Disney Magic that I'd be honored to meet you some time! Oops. Off topic. Squirrel! I was going to say that the $10K was more like $160,000 today. It's not chump change, but it came straight from the amazing success of Snow White, and what a beginning! - FairyGodfather
