Originally Posted By DlandDug Questions 2 and 3 have been answered correctly, though not by the OP...! 1.) Whose tickets are currently on display? 2.) The first display tickets were from the collection of Jack Janzen (of E Ticket magazine). 3.) The case previously held copies of letters to Walt from famous people. (Can you name any of the celebrities whose letters were included?)

You think you've got it made until 5 seconds later when he raises his little finger and you are flat on your back wondering what happened. What makes it even better is how nice and unassuming Dug is with his knowledge. (Not that you're old and bent over Dug, you get my metaphor I hope.)

It was written by I want to say the head of the Kennedy Clan (?)...the letter reads that he was asking Walt for something to prove to his grandchildren that he was able to do anything...and getting this something from Walt would prove it, and he pleaded to Walt about it. It was very charming. I think it was a drawing of a cartoon character that he was after?

Originally Posted By DlandDug Joseph P. Kennedy is correct. I do not recall letters from Richard Nixon or Deems Taylor, but (ready for it...) I could be wrong. And they may have changed out the letters from time to time. There was a letter from another US President, as well as one from a giant in the field of classical music. I don't believe we have an answer to the first part of this question. Who owns the ticket collection currently on display? I should mention that I guessed (correctly) before I saw the confirmation, hidden in plain sight in the case. This person is connected to the park, and has a notable collection of Disneyland tickets. Enough hints? (And when it comes to "knowing it all," my motto is: We never guess; we look it up!)

I have a question that has been kind of nagging me, and I do not have the answer. What person was in the most parades in Disneyland? While Im at it, is there any footage or photographs of the opening of The Enchanted Tiki Room? I have an original snapshot of Walt taken on that day,(along with his autograph), and I want to see how it matches up with other images.
