Hong Kong Disneyland – 15th Anniversary – Operation Santa Claus (B)
One of two postcard variants Disney issued in 2020 to celebrate its 15th anniversary (even while the park was closed) and to generate proceeds for a local charity called Operation Santa Claus. These were really hard to get. Card measures 4-3/4″ x 6-3/4″, and for good reasons can only be a very limited edition. Unused. Grade: 1

Hong Kong Disneyland – Kindest One of All (set of 6)
We’re showing you the back of this set of six unused cards, still unopened in its original cellowrap but with the retail price taken out of the photo. The insert in the pack shows you designs (we suppose) for each of the six cards, and we suggest you compare these with our other two listings nearby for similar sets. They are all different.

Anaheim Disneyland, House of Haunts
More accurately described in the caption of this unused 1990s (?) Disney postcard as “The Haunted Mansion in New Orleans Square”. Grade: 1

Code: 31800172
Price: $2.00
Anaheim, Disneyland, Mad Tea Party
An official Fantasyland postcard, mailed in 1960 with 4-cent stamp and two postmarks. Some things to note: the postmarks come from Knott’s Berry Farm, a nearby attraction (and we personally can remember when both were small enough that it was possible to visit them in the same day); the caption calls this “Mad Tea Party” then goes on to expand to “Mad Hatter’s Tea Party”; and two different persons wrote the message. Whatever, it was a fun ride at a pleasant time. Grade: 1

Disney Animators’ Collection
This item measures 5-3/4″ x 6-1/4″. Our scan here shows one page in this “book” and a separate paper sleeve to wrap the whole thing. It’s a “book” (connected at the top) of 15 color-in postcards, one paintbrush, and six paint colors (to which you add a bit of water) on each page. The scan for entry 31800174B shows the front cover of the book. Postage rate will be slightly adjusted, and we will let you know of that in advance. Unused. Grade: 1

Dutch Wonderland, Lancaster (Pennsylvania, USA)
This very-kid-friendly amusement park opened in 1963, and the card was mailed in 1979 with two stamps and a heavy postmark. One might deduce from this that the Gift Shop is the park’s prime attraction, but we know there’s more to it than that. Grade: 1

(Hong Kong) Disneyland, Happiest Place on Earth (set of 12)
If you look at this from more than about one foot away, it looks exactly like a hardcover book. It’s not; it’s a box in book format containing 12 lithograph postcards (see our entry 31800178B). Measurements of the whole thing as enclosed in its original protective plastic cover: 7″ high x 6″ across x 1-3/4″ deep. Note that the front logo specifies “Hong Kong Disneyland” and that the spine of the box — not seen in our scan — entitles this “Happiest Place on Earth”. Now please see the scan for 20308923B. Grade: 1

(Hong Kong) Disneyland, Happiest Place on Earth (set of 12) – reverse
First, please see what we wrote about item 31800178A. This is the back of the “book” and shows thumbnails of the 12 cards. We’ve left the original price sticker on, but deleted their price so as not to confuse anyone. Grade: 1

Price: $49.00
Future World, Epcot (Orlando, USA)
We got confused trying to figure out what really happened to Future World but the lead entry in Google told us: “Future World is (was) one of two “lands” at Epcot at Walt Disney World Resort, divided into two sections, Future World East and Future World West… A unique feature of Future World was its inclusion of a monorail track in the park. Replaced by: World Celebration; World Nature. Opening date: October 1, 1982; Closing date: September 30, 2021. The unused postcard’s still here, and Grade: 1

Anaheim Disneyland, Monsanto Chemical Company Exhibit (USA)
Unused card from Tomorrowland, showing The Chemitron — “symbolizing for visitors the amazing processes of chemistry … that transforms eight basic materials found in nature into thousands of chemicals and plastics”. Grammar notwithstanding, nature must now use thousands of years to transform those items back into eight basic materials. Grade: 1

Code: 31800180

Anaheim Disneyland, Fantasyland (California)
Unused official card 0010021810 showing Pinocchio’s village, prancing horses, Wonderland, and flying elephants. (Sounds just like our own home.) Grade: 1

Hong Kong Disneyland – The Most Magical Show
Kindly bear with us while we try to describe this. The item contains a round sticker of Mickey, and a postcard, each in the original (connected) Cello-wrap. The left part of our scan shows what it looks like when the sticker (not stuck!) lays over the postcard. The right part of the scan is what it looks like if we flip the sticker up so you can see the (unused) card. That blank white circle is just the back of the sticker as flipped — it’s not a flaw. We have two of these, and the postcards do specify HK Disneyland on the backs. Grades: 1

Hong Kong Disneyland – Castle of Magical Dreams (set of 13)
To be precise, “13 Royal Fairytales and Postcards,” which we want to assume means at least 13 postcards in this set — but it is in its original Cello-wrap and we have not opened or disturbed that. Evidence is in our scan: on the left, the front of the pack. On the right, most of the back (showing those cards?) but with the original pricing cut off at the bottom so as not to confuse you. This set is unique to Hong Kong Disneyland, and without free-standing shops here, you need to go there to get the cards. Two sets are available. Grades: 1

Haw Par Villa (Singapore)
Also known as Tiger Balm Gardens, here’s an edited excerpt from their official website: “Built in 1937, Haw Par Villa, Singapore’s largest outdoor art gallery, is the brainchild of Aw Boon Haw, the philanthropist who gifted the world Tiger Balm. The eclectic park is a trove of Asian culture, history, philosophy and religion – quirky yet enlightening at the same time. Since 2015, it has been managed by Journeys Pte Ltd.” This is unused old A.S.M.K. & Co. card 32592-B. Grade: 1

Code: 31800195T
Price: $11.00
Osaka, Sen-nichi-mae (Japan)
On this mid-20th-century unused card, the area is termed as “Amusement Centers”. We don’t know Osaka well, but it seems to have been repositioned now — according to an official Osaka website (we’ve condensed a bit) — as “Sennichimae Doguyasuji Shopping Street is lined with specialty stores of all kinds of cooking utensils and kitchen items. Stores stocking tools accommodating (chefs) congregate in Doguyasuji. It started as an approach from Sennichimae of Hozenji temple to Odaishi worship at Shitennoji temple and Imaebisu Shrine lined with antique and sundries stores. In the early 20th century, they developed as wholesale stores and specialty stores of manufacturing. The arcade was built in 1970 to become the current 150m-long shopping street.” Same area? Wholesale stores are not amusement centers, usually. Grade: 1

Price: $19.00
Tampa, Busch Gardens (Florida, USA)
Mailed from Canada (not Florida!) in 1993, with two stamps and obscured airmail sticker and also obscured postmark. Despite the consequent grade, the card itself is fine as it shows chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes) possibly reacting to the cost of admission. Grade: 4

Hong Kong Disneyland 15
As we’ve commented a few times already, it is now extraordinarily difficult to find postcards of anything other than the most generic global Disney images in any of Hong Kong Disneyland’s own shops or hotels, or its airport outlet, where there are — right now — none at all. The story of what we went through to get this one would fill your screen, so we’ll spare you. But this is an unused card commemorating the Park’s 15th anniversary. There cannot be too many of these floating around. Grade: 1

Price: $12.00
Orlando, Walt Disney World, Tencennial (Florida, USA)
A special, unused official card showing the parade as Disney World celebrated its “exciting 10th year”. Well, certainly exciting for us as that helps date the postcard at approximately 1981. Grade: 1

Code: 31800203

Disneyland – World of Frozen (Hong Kong)
See also entry 31800206, with this “World of Frozen” one being the sort of “mother card” anchoring others in a limited range from Hong Kong Disneyland’s newest (as of now) attraction. Tick Tock Toys & Collectibles was the name of the shop where the card was sold. Unused. Grade: 1
