EYE CANDY: Balloons!Monday, January 23, 2012 at 9:19PM Posted by FritzWe bring you photos of those good old iconic Mickey Mouse balloons.I don't know the history of the Mickey-shaped balloons. I do know I loved picking one out as a little kid every time we went to Disneyland.Spiffy old balloon vendor costumes...This next photo is wonderful. It was sent to us by a fan of the blog, Jeffrey Lipack, as part of our Photo Hunt. Look at the grass hill!These next two were sent in by Daniel Zuccarelli (@PerpetualGeek, PGMShow.net). I love Main Street morning shots like this. If you look closely you'll see a few kids have already gotten their balloon for the day.Speaking of kids.... This kid is selling the balloons. Lucky guy. Look behind the balloons on the left. The artwork on the bag is fun. It features a very early Mickey and Minnie with that old Walt Disney World logo we all love. Click here for a clearer image.On a date with a sailor. Great balloon and a fantastic pennant. Pennants were one of my favorite souvenirs after growing out of balloons. Where are all my pennants now?? Sadly I have no clue.Lone balloons.Characters with balloons.Chip and Dale in Rescue Rangers garb.Chip and Dale in the nude.Roger Rabbit.The "new school" version of the Mickey balloon. I actually love these balloons-in-balloons. It's a rare thing to take a classic product and improve on it without ruining any of its original qualities.http://www.imagineeringdisney.com/blog/2012/1/23/eye-candy-balloons.html Quote Link to post Share on other sites
