A couple of weeks ago, Disney’s Animal Kingdom theme park celebrated its tenth anniversary. Some lucky Disney fans attended the WDWCelebrations “A Wild Decade” event on that day, and were able to bring us back some special items to auction off.

As part of the anniversary celebration, Disney provided a special opportunity to meet Imagineer Joe Rohde. Park guests stood in line for up to two hours for the chance to shake his hand, speak to him briefly, and get his signature on a few items.

Deb Wills asked Joe Rohde to sign a Limited Edition Laser Cel. This piece of art features a large cast of animated character, including a number that are rarely seen outside their films. The Cel comes with a Certificate of Authenticity and a “key” to all the characters depicted in the cel. The matted piece measures approximately 17 x 9”, and Joe Rohde signed the mat in black sharpie on the lower right corner.

There was a selection of special merchandise in addition to the laser cel available for the anniversary. Lou Mongello andPrincessTammi each donated to the Animal Kingdom Anniversary lot, which will contain an anniversary T-Shirt and backpack, as well as a signed photo of Joe Rohde and some other memorabilia from the day.

Once again, many thanks to Deb, Lou, and Tammi!
