Kevin Kidney: Hatbox Ghost
I’ve posted about the Hatbox Ghost before (this fellow has also been an inspiration for jewelry and T-shirts I’ve made). Now Kevin Kidney has fashioned a wonderful maquette for an auction celebrating Walt Disney resort’s 40th anniversary, October 1st.
The sculpture is based on Collin Campbell’s original painting for the famous 1969 Disneyland Record, “The Story and Song from The Haunted Mansion.”
See the artist’s post about Hatbox Ghost here.

You had the record?? I’d LOVE to get it. I wonder if it’s still available. And the Haunted Mansion was my favorite ride of all time (still is). I used to go to Disney and ride it up to 5 times in a row…then come back for more later!

You know the drill, the Realtor calls you about the perfect home which is in the neighborhood you have been looking for and it’s priced a little low but you are a strong all cash buyer and you want it.
