a gift from W.E.D. Enterprises, Inc. on Sunday...

How many of you would like find one of these in your mailbox?


This is a neat flyer that was mailed out to WED Enterprises clients and associates back in 1966, Walt's last year.

It announced the move from Sonora St. offices to the new, swanky Mod-offices on Flower St. in Glendale.
It features a fold out map with directions to the new digs and also features this neat write up on WED on the reverse...

"We look forward to welcoming you to our new headquarters..."

I wonder if owning this flyer entitles me to take them up on that invitation 40 years late?

Very nice piece. I have seen other flyers for when other parts of Walt Disney Productions moved.

I haven't seen one of these for 40 years. I mailed out hundreds and passed out hundreds more at functions where I spoke as Walt's rep from 1966-1969.
