DS, signed “Walter E. Disney,” one page, 8.5 x 11, February 15, 1960. Waiver reads, “We, the undersigned, as Voting Trustees of WED Enterprises, Inc., being all of the shareholders of said corporation, waive notice of the annual meeting of the shareholders of said corporation held on the 15th day of February, 1960, and do hereby approve and adopt the foregoing as the minutes of said meeting.” Nicely signed at the conclusion by Disney and countersigned by William H. D. Cotrell. Attractively matted and framed with a Fantasia program cover, a book portrait of Disney, and several smaller color images of Disney characters, to an overall size of 29.75 x 23. In fine condition. Accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from Phil Sears. Walter Elias Disney founded the company in 1952, lending his initials to its name, in order to fund and oversee the development of Disneyland. In the the 1950s, the notion of building an amusement park without a Ferris wheel or roller coaster seemed like a losing proposition to many, so Disney had to fund it himself. He provided the startup money for the park from his own personal fortune, funneled through WED Enterprises. Since it was a separate entity from the Walt Disney Company, the development of the park could be conducted in secret and without disclosure to shareholders. Today, the company is called Walt Disney Imagineering. A fantastic relic from the early days of one of America's most famous places. Oversized.
