Also the Pirates Snowglobe with LE Pin & Artist's Notes – for $99.95. The hand painted globe features a rather ghostly ghost ship in the tentacles of a giant octopus, the base features images of Captain Jack Sparrow, Will and Elizabeth. The first 500 shipped will include an enamel cloissoné pin and artist's notes detailing the making of the globe – the item plays Yo Ho (what else?)

Four of the pieces from the Song of the South 60th Anniversary Collection were there – for a film
that, given Bob Iger’s latest comments, we’re likely never to see again, these
items got a lot of attention. The Song of the South Musical Jewelry Box,
for $49.95 features four enamel cloisonné pins - Brer Rabbit, Brer Bear, Brer
Fox and Bluebird – and plays Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah – the sepia art work on
the top is from the film's opening credits. The box is 2¾ inches high, 6 inches
wide and 4 inches deep and comes with a Certificate of Authenticity.

Out of the several new items to join the Alice in Wonderland array – this whimsical one is among
my favorites – the LE 1,000 Alice In Wonderland Miniature Franz Porcelain
Tea Set, at $69.95, is right out of one of my favorite scenes – the mad tea
party – and Jody’s designs of the demented service has never looked better. The
set includes the very teapots, cups, saucers, sugar bowl and spoon which
appeared in the scene. The presentation box is likewise wonderful, featuring
concept art by Disney Legend Mary Blair. The set is a Limited Edition of 1,000
and comes with a Certificate of Authenticity.

Kind of a mixed bag – pardon the pun – of items from
the Mary Poppins and Mary Blair Woven
Pillow collections – the Mary Poppins Articulated Umbrella Replica, in
the foreground, at $99.95 – the Mary Poppins Carpet Bag, at $84.95 – the
Mary Poppins Penguin Big Fig, at $150.00 and the spectacular LE 1000
Mary Poppins Tapestry, at $179.00, in the background – I love this stuff and
will shop when it becomes available on September 6th.
You can also see the Mary Blair Peter Pan Woven Pillow. Along with the Cinderella and Alice in Wonderland pieces – each 17-inch square, woven polyester pillow sells for $49.95 – they make a wonderful accent to any room.

Jody’s Disney Arts
and Crafts Collection took one small podium to display and stole a large
part of my heart in the process. The LE 750 Disney Arts & Crafts Table Lamp (Pinocchio)
at $229.00 – the LE 500 Snow White Stained Glass Panel at $159.00 – the
LE 500 3-Tile Bambi Ceramic Tile Wall Hanging at $99.95 and the LE 1,000
Bambi Arts & Crafts Trinket Box at $39.95 are all inspired uses of
classic Disney properties set in an old-world design. Jody quite outdid himself
with these. The collection is available on September 22nd.
