From the back cover:

From Mickey Mouse to Donald Duck, through soup kitchens, wars, and the burgeoning television era, Disneyana: Classic Collectibles 1928 - 1958 is a stunning panorama of the golden age of Disney memorabilia, celebrating the art, history, and spirit of the ages that has charmed generations of fans worldwide.

The extraordinary pop-culture icon rapscallion, Mickey Mouse, first became a folk hero during the Depression, and both his image and that of his friends have endured a myriad Disney collectibles. Featuring more than 400 full-color and black-and-white illustrations, Disneyana contains an authoritatvie, anecdotal history of the development, production, marketing, and collecting of the Disneyana phenomenon. We rediscover the whimsical charm of tin banks, pencil boxes, Ingersoll Mickey Mouse watches, radios, beach toys, and much more - all graced with Disney characters. The authors present Walt Disney's philosophy behind the appeal of the memorabilia, and explore such periods as:

• READIN', WRITIN', & 'RITHMETIC: Puzzles, comic strips, Waddle and pop-up books, school readers, paper-doll cutout books, and greeting cards.
• MICKEY AND HIS FRIENDS AT WAR: During World War II the Walt Disney Studios created instrucitonal films and insignia for Air Force squadrons, and developed the new "South of the Border" characters. In this era Donald Duck emerged as "top gun" on squadron bombers, and was promoted on war bonds and was conservation advertising campaigns.
• THE FABULOUS FIFTIES: Animated films, television programs such as the Mickey Mouse Club, and theme parks generated a slew of collectible items, including lunch boxes, playing cards, and figurines.

From the story of the Lionel Corporation's Mickey and Minnie handcar, produced for 1934's Christmas season, to the explosion of merchandise resulting from motion pictures and television features such as Zorro and Davy Crockett, Disneyana is an entertaining and informative trip down memory lane, and is a keepsake treasure for any collector or Disney fan.
