"Launching into the Future" Tomorrowland 1998

Eleven years later and I’m still in shock from the mess that was/is Tomorrowland '98. I’d like to say whoever Ok’d this should be fired, but we know who Ok’d it, he signed this letter inviting the cast to preview the new Tomorrowland, complete with that crowd pleaser "Honey I Shrunk the Attendance".






The artwork on these items doesn’t really match the final end result. Is it just me or are these renderings even worse than what we actually got? What were they thinking – Jules Verne meets Licorice Pizza? The center of this sheet is one of those 3D shifting things, but even it doesn’t work as it should, figures!






Here’s the envelope this mess came in, it's postmarked January 28, 1998, Anaheim. CA. The artwork is a little better without all those hideous colors.





Please excuse the less than upbeat tone of this post, can you tell how much I loved Tomorrowland ’98? Let me try and find something good to say: The paper is high quality and Paul has a nice signature?
