Best collecting experience in YEARS. I took my 4yr.old to DISNEY. Someone made me aware that when you ride the Monorail, you can ask the conductor for a trading card. I forgot to ask 2 years ago when i went. When i got my card this year, imagine my surprise when it said it was part of a 27 card set. I inquired, and found out you can get a different trading card on each of the boats, busses & monorails. So my boy & i started 'the chase.' This wasn't about expensive autographs, rarity, or even condition. This was 'back to basics.' It felt like my childhood experience again. About 90% of all Transportation drivers were aware of the program; but only 50% of the drivers actually had cards to hand-out. And often, they had been in their pocket for days getting beat up, waiting for someone to come ask. It was quite the hunt, a whole lot like Halloween Trick-or-Treating. "Hello, do you have a Transportation Card?" We would go a half dozen drivers in a row with a 'dry-spell,' but then find one that had 3 different cards to choose from. Anyways ... here's the cards ... I never got them all, but built memories around the ones i acquired. HINT: You don't actually have to ride the Transportation; just find the driver. We rode busses 90% of the time, and knocked out the 3 bus cards right away. Only 1 bus driver had a non-bus card (monorail). ... And while we're at it: If you waited in line to get a picture with the RALPH character, you got a card: ____________________ - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - @Sketchcards on Twitter | ||

Cool! I like the Electrical Water Pageant card. I think there are also Jack and Sally "signature" cards being given out during their meet & greet at Mickey's Halloween Party. ____________________ Twitter = L_Inglis_artist Facebook = LauraInglis7 http://laurainglisillustration.com | |||
