(Disneyland, c.1981) A rare collection of original development artwork used in the creation of Disneyland postcards. This set comes from the estate of Gene Calmelat, an employee in the Creative Services division. The set features a Universal Studios postcard from 1979 that was used as the basis for designing a new style of postcards for Disneyland. The front of the postcard has adhesive residue from where a new image was adhered over the existing imagery and then removed. The back of the postcard has hand-trimmed and applied Disneyland logos and copyright information for Disneyland which cover up the old Universal Studios information, as well pencil marks noting what changes need to be made. This postcard includes a Disneyland folder which contains five photo negative layers featuring the logos which would be used on the backs of the new Disneyland postcards. Additionally, this set includes an artist's board with (4) additional printed logos adhered to it. This impressive set offers a very rare look into the creation of Disneyland postcards, and is in very good condition with some minor wear throughout from use.
