Webmaster's note... Thank you to Paul Anderson for allowing the reprint from his excellent Persistence of Vision issue on Disney and the Fair. Persistence of Vision is the finest, most comprehensive source for historical information on Walt Disney and his creative legacy. The Fair issue is THE most thoroughly researched presentation on Disney's involvement with the Fair ever written. In fact, at 144 pages, it is truly a book!

I'd also like to thank all those who contributed to the Ford Feature who are noted throughout these pages. This story would not have been able to be told as completely had it not been for your contributions of souvenirs, photos and anecdotes. Thank you so very much.
