Presented to Walt Disney from the Los Angeles City Council, this certificate—comprised of water color and ink—proclaims July 15, 1955 as "Disneyland Day" in honor of Walt's past achievements and to congratulate him on the creation of a "new era" of family entertainment with the opening of Disneyland. The resolution certificate has never been publicly displayed before and can now be seen on the wall of our Awards Lobby.
In celebration of Disneyland's 60th anniversary, we've asked our friend—and celebrated voice actor—Bill Rogers to read a selection from the certificate’s dedication. Tune in below!
