Old maps and schedules

[pal-mickey]

While cleaning out my closet today I came across a bunch of wdw maps and schedules from past trips. I was wondering does anybody else keep these and how do you store them?

I got a whole bunch of these as well dating all the way back from the 1970's. I even kept some of my old parking tickets!

I usually keep them all together for the trip in one of the disney bags you get. I get a park map each day from each park I visit. I keep all the bags in one of those big plastic storage bins. Every once in a while, I open it up and go thru it. It is fun going thru the old memories.
For a bunch of trips, I also got Passporter books, Those I keep receipts in, and keep on the bookshelves. I've used the receipts- going thru them to see what I purchased on previous trips, to decide if getting a dining plan is worth it or not.

You mean there are people who do not keep the maps and times guides? I have scanned all mine.

Oh boy, a support group for my addiction ! I like to keep 1 map of each park and a brochure from whatever else I find in guest relations spots + times guides that cover my entire stay in the welcome envelope upon check in.

I also have tons of "backups" scattered all over the place. Maybe picking up 10 maps and guides at each park per visit is a bit excessive ? I recently discovered the storing in park bag trick. I'll have to start getting some of the stickers they hand out and use them to date and seal the bag.

For anyone reading this who shares this hobby, check every hotel lobby and anywhere there is a guest relations counter. Never know what you'll find different.

I keep mine too, and I try to remember to write the dates of the trip on them...I also keep my key to the world cards

I keep all mine too but they are not organized anywhere, i'll never know when i will find one. i don't have any from the 70s but i have the ones that had the dates printed on them before they started printing out the separate weekly time schedule.

Very cool! I guess I should hold on to my old brochures
