Disney World Plate......

[smcdaniel4688]

Hi! just curious to see if anyone has any info on a plate that I have. It is a blue, ribbon edged decorative plate that I know is quite old. It has the castle in the center and 6 different scenes from around Disney along the outside of it....like the steamboat, its a small world, mainstreet usa, the jungle cruise, arieal shot of the town square, and the momrail. (those are the scenes clockwise from the top). It says "The Magic Kingdom" "Walt Disney World" and "c Walt Disney Productions" in the center above and below the castle. It is a robins egg blue and the designs are black, white, and green. If I am not mistaken, there is one like mine on display in "One Mans Dream" in HS. If anyone could give me info on what I have here, I would appreciate it!!!!

I think these were sold as a dish intended to hold candy or fruit. There are a good number of these on ebay. They go for $10-$20 on average.

Thank you! I am wondering what years they were sold.....Now I have an idea of where to look. Thanks Sosai X!!

They were made between 1971 and 1986, as the first date is the opening of WDW, the second is when they changed the name to The Walt Disney Company.
