Walt Disney BABES IN TOYLAND Lobby Card Tommy Sands Gypsy Disneyland Opera House
Historic Disneyland Memorabilia from Saturday's Toys presents...
a vintage lobby card from Walt Disney's "Babes in Toyland" (1961).
Features the film's co-star, Tommy Sands, only moments after his character, "Tom Piper" is revealed when portraying "Floretta the Gypsy" in an elaborate song and dance number.
Lobby Card is in vibrant color, 11" x 14", and features several of the set pieces that were transported to Disneyland upon the completion of the film.  Once received at Disneyland, the sets were re-installed at the Town Square Opera House where they would welcome guests for the next few years.  Having originally served as Disneyland's lumber mill during construction of the park, in the months that followed, the Opera House would also serve as the world headquarters for "The Mickey Mouse Club" until "Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln" was finally installed inside the theater (1965).
The film also starred Annette Funicello ("The Mickey Mouse Club") and Ray Bolger ("The Wizard of Oz").
A rare combination is pictured; both for the film... and also picturing a slice of Disneyland history.

was founded in 1994 by Southern California author and Disney historian, Dave Mason. Soon after eBay's launch the following year, Saturday's Toys was among the first Disneyana specialists to strategize in embracing this rapidly developing technology. Having delivered over 10,000 coveted Disney treasures since then, Saturday's Toys is pleased to partner with researchers, collectors and friends throughout the world with a shared interest in the preservation of authentic and accurate Disney history.
Today, online offerings of archival Disneyana keepsakes are presented in celebration of the extended times that allow for family, friends and neighbors to join in memorable gatherings that nurture the strong connections that bind a community together. These treasures are affectionately known as "Saturday's Toys." In that light we present our adopted motto (with a tip of the cap to the Sherman Brothers):
"Oh, let's go fly a kite!"
