Thomas Kinkade Signing...how Early Should You Be There??

[50thisyeartoo!]

I'm driving with a friend hoping to buy a Kinkade 50th anniversary Disneyland print. How early do we need to line up at the entrance? Does anyone know how early the gallery will open? Any info is greatly appreciated...thanks.

I haven't heard anything about this. Do you mind elaborating on this? I love his work!!

I got an AP leaflet in the mail today stating to "Save the Date! Thomas Kinkade Product Release Sept. 10, 2005" (visit www.disneygallery.com). This is for Disneyland, not Florida. The picture featured in the leaflet is very beautiful, the DL castle with a Kinkade type frontage and backround. Anyway, I do plan to check it out, sorry I cannot help you in WDW. Any other DIS'ers out there have any info?

Bump....I'm very curious for more information, too.
Thanks!

If you go to the disneygallery.com you can see the print; it's Sleeping Beauty's Castle...very nice. I don't know if there will be any left on Monday for Disneyland to sell so we're going to go there and buy ours.

I had gotten an e-mail about the breakfast and signing with TK at Disneyland and they sold out by the time I showed it to my DH about 3 hours later! The only thing better than getting the print would have been meeting TK and having him sign it.

Someone posted this in another thread...

"If you can't make it to the part that day to buy one of his signed Disneyland 50th anniversary prints can you buy it online or thru DelivEARS? Thank you."


Hope this helps.

My one and only trip to Disneyland was in April 2004........and who do I see painting on a canvas outside the Castle? Thomas Kinkade himself. I stopped to watch him paint for a few minutes........but my family wanted to press on. I did snap a picture of him while he painted. If I can somehow figure out how, I'll post the picture.

You can buy one from delivEARS if there are any left...that's what I was told...

We sprinted to the Disney Gallery yesterday morning at 8am when Disneyland opened...since we stayed at the Paradise Pier Hotel we had early admittance...My friend and I were able to get the red wrist band; we bought our prints (we both got AP's)...really neat...and then came back at 3:30 to take pictures with Thomas Kinkade and his nice family. He was very cordial; shook our hands and then we took the pictures. It was a GREAT day. Our prints should come in approximately 3 weeks. There was a line all day at Disneyland to get them. It was well worth the wait.

I am so glad to hear you had success on this. That is what I should have done. We have had a print on order through our local Kinkade gallery since Feb!. When I couldn't get tix to the breakfast event I didn't even think of coming down to buy one at the Disney gallery. We got received a call today that our print is coming in to the local Kinkade gallery. We had first choice of size and type since we have been waiting the longest. Did you get yours framed? If so which frame did you pick? I have to decide on a frame and think the antique gold would be best.

Thanks
