I've got a cool collectable. :)

I just need to know what it really is and when it was made! Oh, yes, and if it's worth enough to put me through grad school. It's a large book (about 24"x16") that shows in pictures and words a concept of the "new Experimental Prototype Community Of Tomorrow." It's not at all like the Epcot/World Showcase we know today. It ends saying something about how you (country or company?) can be a part of it. The concept drawings are facinating, apparently they had planned on putting a LOT more inside. I can post some pictures in a few days if anyone thinks it would help them. If not, can anyone suggest another site or people to talk to? Thanks!

Do you have an author and copyright date? I may have the same book.

There's no date on it anywhere so I'm not even sure of the decade though it should be easy to narrow down just by WDW history. I'm planning on borrowing a digital camera tonight to take some pictures to post. It showed up in the bottom of a box that had been donated to the elementary school library my mom works at years before she started so it's pretty much hopeless to trace down the origional owner and ask them questions... it's a private school associated with a large church and doesn't keep records of small donations like that. I'd love to see pictures of your book, see if it's the same and if not, see the evolution of EPCOT from one to the other!
