    Here is what I found, for me this was real exciting.

    1.The Hand Behind the Mouse by:Leslie Iwerks & John Kenworthy
    only $6.98

    2.The Art of Walt Disney, from Mickey Mouse to The Magic Kingdoms by:Christohper Finch
    only $6.98

    3.(this is my fav.) Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs & The Making if the Classic Film. by: Richard Hollis & Brian Sibley
    only $11.98

    4.(this was for fun) The Complete Walt Disney World by: Julie & Mike Neal
    only $4.98

    the first 3 are hard backs, they are in real good condition. I am so happy with them that I just had to tell everyone.
    :)

    Nope. I'm in the SF Bay Area.

    They also publish a children's book each year, using the work of unpublished writers and illustrators and selling it in their stores for charity.
