Walt Disney World Magic Kingdom Attraction Posters: The Liberty Square Collection

I'll admit, this is a bit of incentive, but Imagineer Eric Chan's great new poster of the Haunted Mansion for this year's Epcot Festival of the Arts, made me rethink my timing of this post on Liberty Square's Attraction Posters. 

The most beautiful land at Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom is the one that celebrates America: Liberty Square. Unabashed patriotism is something you don't find these days. Back in 1971, however, it was still ok to be proud of America- warts and all. 

Most appropriately, the land's attraction posters are grand works of art.

Yet, there are very few: An elegant looking The Hall of Presidents and the eerie and spook filled The Haunted Mansion have both made the cut. There should be more though, right? Each land in the Magic Kingdom is filled with attractions that deserve their own artistic advertisement. The attraction posters for the Magic Kingdom's Main Street U.S.A. can be found here, Adventureland's are here, and those for Tomorrowland are here.

It's a totally different case in other parks, particularly at Disneyland and California Adventure (look here) and then in Tokyo with Tokyo Disneyland and Tokyo Disneysea. All of these have terrific posters! Just browse around this site to find them. Even the EPCOT collection here is quite amazing. So are the ones on the blog for Universal Orlando Resort actually. Enjoy!

If Adventure Has a Name

From his first appearance in Raiders of the Lost Ark to his latest appearance in the lamest film of the bunch, its star Indiana Jones continues to be an enduring American icon. Four films, (two coming soon), and decades later, writers, artists, and Disney Imagineers continue to create new pieces of art honoring their hero. From Anaheim to Walt Disney World to Tokyo DisneySea, even the Walt Disney Company has been bitten hard by the bug.

Blogger Eric Tan is one skilled man and Indy fan. He has created some very cool, uniquely styled posters celebrating the phenominal success of our beloved Doctor Jones. While I cannot say I appreciate everything on his blog, I certainly recommend going there to check out these pieces. Absolutely terrific work!
