Disney Files (Magic) First Edition.

salmim · 3 Dec 20, 03:31 PM

Just been rooting in my brothers attic for some old family photos. He said "here look at these", he has every single edition of the DVC Disney Files Magazine.
First 2 came out Annually 91 and 92 and were called Guides then first changed to Disney Magic in 92. Brilliant, had a good hour looking through them with the wives shouting up " You found those photos yet"
Wondered if anyone else has them.

The first one was 20th Anniversary and has an amazing photo on the front with all the CMs with raised arms filling Main St right to the Castle.
Am rubbish at adding photos but will try.
Happy Days at OKW.

Not sure how he knows but my brother was 192 to buy in! (Might have been the same week!)

Be great if your cousin has them, really nostalgic reading. Happier times.

Those purchaser back then had a great deal. Free Park tickets etc.

John who owns Owners Lockers was a Guide back in those early days.

At around 1.5 to the Pound !

Time machine?

Although very happy with our eventual purchases in 2005 when it was an even better rate.

If only we could go!

God love those days when the exchange rate was so good. We bought in at SSR at $73 a point. Great days.

I really believe that from May 21 we will be heading back to normality.
