These postcards are from a set of 10 postcards in a metal box, two of each design.  I bought two boxed sets in 2012. One I kept, and one I sent out to friends.  

Walt Disney with Mickey and Gang by Castle in Disneyland

Disneyland
"It all Started With a Mouse"
Sleeping Beauty's Castle towers above a colorful array of characters from the wrold of make-believe, led by Walt Disney and his first and foremost star ... Mickey Mouse.
1965.

All the way to the right (you can see the skirt) is a chicken, then an ostrich then a camel and his rider - they are all from the 1965 Christmas parade inside Disneyland, “Fantasy on Parade”.

Then you see Dopey, (behind Dopey is the Mad Hatter's Hat), Goofy, Mickey, Kanga, and Pluto. Behind Walt Disney you can see the character from Pinocchio called Foulfellow. Then there is The Three Pigs and the Big Bad Wolf. Last is Captain Hook and I'm not sure about the rabbit, maybe from Winnie the Pooh or the white rabbit from Alice in Wonderland?

Fantasyland
The land of enchantment lies beyond the draw-bridge guarding the entrance to Sleeping Beauty's Castle at Disneyland.  Beyond the Castle Fantasyland comes to life with gay rides in Disney fashion.

This was mailed - but I 'erased' the address before I posted the postcard - too bad it was folded in half!

I wish I could get official Disney t-shirts now for only a dollar and pay 25 cents for shipping and handling!!
