Originally Posted By Jim in Pasadena CA I enjoyed Kim's coverage, however, having visited the exhibit, I was a bit disappointed. While the renderings, and paintings and maquettes are fun to see, there was one huge omission from the exhibit -- the people! There isn't one picture of Marc Davis, Claude Coates, Herb Ryman, Blaine Gibson, Alice Davis or any of the other Imagineers who worked on the project. Oh yeah, and that other Disney guy...what was his name...Walt.
Originally Posted By DisLee Great coverage Kim, but you seem to have gotten different info on the Pirates print-on-demand selection than what I was told. When I visited the exhibit 2 weeks ago there were 27 images available. I was told that 5 or 6 more images were on the way and then that would be it - no more Pirates attraction art. Imagineering would not approve any more images. This was very discouraging as I had seen several paintings in the Gallery that I wanted to purchase - but they were not available on print-on-demand. Also, several of the 27 images available were not by the classic imagineers (Davis, Ryman, Coats, etc), but by a younger Imagineer who does a cartoonish version of Marc Davis' style. I like your info better - that there are many more great images coming, but unfortunately I was told the exact opposite. All in all, the exhibit itself was great... but the print-on-demand selection was very disappointing.
