Blue Bayou Restaurant DISNEYLAND Original Art for early 1980\'s Menu Walt Disney Product Description
\"SATURDAY\'S TOYS Presents...\"a wonderful example of original vintage artwork for The Blue Bayou Restaurant at Disneyland in Anaheim, California.
Created in the late 1970\'s / early 1980\'s, this is the original concept art that was approved andactuallyutilized on the restaurant menu of that era. We are aware of its use on a 1982 menu; though it may have been utilized for Bluou signage and menu printingprior to that date. Earlier menu presentations featured the tree at the bottom of the menu; rather than in the center.
Truly a one-of-a-kind work of original art; created exclusively for the Blue Bayou. The earlier designs for this historic restaurant were personally reviewed and approved by Walt Disney. Of note is the oak tree (in green; at center of art)... representing the giant \"species Disneydendron\" oak tree (named for Walt Disney himself; whowas present in July 1966 to dedicate New Orleans Square). Theoak tree is covered in spanish moss... andcovers much of the interior of the famed restaurant.
As acquired through Profiles in History\'s sale #58; Lot 303.
