Sorry not the best picture of it, but here's the 10th anniversary watch for EPCOT, 1992 I picked up and has some of the 90's graphic vibes. Note the triangle at the 10 o'clock position, indicating the 10th Anniversary.

EPCOT, WDW, and Disney's Hollywood Studios T-shirt graphics I thought were cool enough to take a photo of but didn't purchase myself.

This Figment / Journey Into Imagination quarter-zip sweater too, even though it was 30% off
(I'm sure soon to be found at the Character Warehouse and Disney Store Outlets)

I think if WDW was my "home", I would've purchased this jacket. I do like the saying on the back, "Spread Sunshine. Not Shade"

Is it true that some of the scenes were repurposed from the Horizons Attraction at EPCOT?

I think I heard something about it being a very busy port! And how they dug deep so the big ships could come in.

![A park bench from Griffith Park carousel, Walt Disney Family Museum, Presidio, San Francisco.
Museum placard text:
"This bench is one of several from the Griffith Park carousel where Walt spent many weekend hours while his daughters enjoyed it.
Diane recalls that he was never impatient, but let them ride as long as they wanted. Since his time in Kansas City he had been fascinated with amusement parks, remarking once to his friend Rudy Ising, "I'm going to have one some day, but mine's going to be clean!" The concept of a new kind of amusement park, one where parents and children could have fun together, occupied him as he sat on this bench, observing his own daughters and other families."

Alas, although my superdisk works, the CD is not readable. Here is the fold-out in the jewel case basically showing the contents of the CD. It also provides branding and written copy guidelines.

I did also pick up this t-shirt which mimics the well-loved promotional poster for EPCOT Center’s 1982 opening.

Didn’t buy too many souvenirs while at WDW, but did pick up this Twinings Teas while visiting the UK Pavilion, EPCOT.
Very strong, but tasty. Not a huge chocolate / hazelnut, note but it’s there. Would recommend. Thinking this persnickety Queen would even approve.
