Walt Disney passed away on December 15, 1966, so, 47 years ago Walt was leaving us. A sad day indeed but i've found for you one of my favorite picture of Walt on which he is incredibly "alive".
Let me tell you more first: we all have "played" with these instant photo I.D machines - called in France "Photomaton" - but if there is one picture of Walt that i had never thought of seeing - and i mean NEVER - it's these pics of Walt with his wife Lilian in a pure moment of privacy, playing with the camera of the machine like two teenagers.
The pictures were shot probably early 50's and what is of course interesting here is how far these pictures are from the usual corporate pics of Walt. And also that for once he is not playing the "good ol' uncle Walt" like he was doing for instance during the TV shows. But of course the pictures below were supposed to stay private...
