Mickey And Minnie, August 15 1959

Mickey and Minnie are causing quite a stir outside the Bank of America in Town Square. They are big stars after all, even though they have remained humble and lovable. Every parent wants a picture; the price of fame. I don't want to sound paranoid, but I think Mickey is whispering something to Minnie - about me


Mickey has been using a new conditioner, which leaves his head shiny and manageable (no split ends!). Someone has handed the mice a warm, juicy baby, and yet nobody seems to have a camera at the ready; what gives? Meanwhile, Minnie takes a moment to dream of the day when she and Mickey have a pup (i.e. baby mouse) of their own.

These pictures crack me up -- It looks like no one knows what to do in this situation! All the kids look wary -- they think it's some kind of trap. I guess folks just weren't used to seeing huge cartoon characters in person.

Minnie really does look endearing in that second shot.

The baby's dressed in von Trapp curtains.

Ah! The old style Meet and Greet.

Happy Thanksgiving to all!

Gee, Major - Thanksgiving has barely gotten underway, and your comments sound as if they are influenced by a bit too much tryptophan. (Yeah, I know, the tryptophan in turkey is comparable to that contained in most other meats). But still...

I see the gal in the blue outfit has her hair done up in a stylishly-1950's short 'do'. And what sort of hat is the gentleman in the second picture wearing-? It's got that white & black thing going. Also - he really should have paid a visit to his barber before venturing to The Happiest Place on Earth: he's a bit overdue for a neck hair trim.
