Special Disney Auction On Ebay....

[MICKEY88]

check this one out..it's pretty obvious who's parting with this keepsake...


EBAY AUCTION

 

[Jeafl]

I'm guessing Annette Funicello. Maybe her illness is taking a toll on her finances.

In any case, I don't think the ring is pretty at all, but I'm sure someone will buy it for a very large sum.

How very sad to part with such a special memory!

Why doesn't the seller just come right out and say who the owner is. It makes me sad to know that she is parting with this treasured keepsake. Whenever I'm feeling down, I try to remember a quote from Annette:

"Life doesn't have to be perfect to be wonderful."

It most certainly hasn't been perfect for her.

It appears that the ring isn't the only thing that she is selling:

Diamond Tennis Bracelet & Earrings
1983 New Fantasyland Grand Opening Key
Steamboat Willie Scrimshaw Plaque
1955 Disneyland Opening Commemerative Plaque
Porcelin Mickey Mouse Doll & Music Box

 

[Disney-Kim]

I am sure that she has lots of really cool Disneyana and this is just a small lot. She probably can't use her name for some reason with Disney, copyrights or something.

Wow!

$12,500 starting bid, $15 shipping and $160 insurance. Phew.

Did you look at the seller's other listings.

Reading over the credits of the seller i dont think these items belong to annette but to Darlene. She did the squirel song and corki (I looked at an old record for the squirel thing). I know that Darlene has had alot of legal problems including i think stock fraud over the last few yrs. What a shame she was actually a very good singer but not in a style that was popular at the time.

Bujp, wondering what others think.

Wow! What a neat ring! It was Darlene Gillespie in the Corky series. She was my favorite girl mousketeer, I didn't like Annette at all.
