Tom Scherman was the ultimate Nautilus specialist - it is thanks to him that we have a Nautilus at Disneyland Paris - and thanks to Rowland Scherman and Dave Scherman - Tom Scherman's brothers - you will discover a very rare document, Tom's scrap book that he did when he created a Nautilus decor in his Los Angeles apartment in 1966. Only one copy of this book exists, the one that Tom did to keep pictures of the whole transformation from the renderings to the final result.
From the cover to the last page of this fantastic document, each page of Tom's book is here. And I also did scans of each page most interesting pictures. You must click on each picture to see them in big size as Tom himself details each step of this amazing creation.

Note in French for the French readers: Il reste 30 Exemplaires de l'édition Collector française qui ne sera PAS rééditée car c'était une édition limitée à 2000 exemplaires, donc ne tardez pas pour passer votre commande en m'envoyant un email à: neverlandeditions@gmail.com
The Special Offer is for both the English updated edition or the French collector's edition and the English edition is at 60€ / $65 ( instead of 85€ ) and the French Collector Edition is at 75€ ( instead of 100€ ). In both cases the shipping worldwide is 22€ ( $24 ). Shipping takes 3-4 days for France, 10-15 days to European countries, 2 to 3 weeks for countries outside Europe. Sorry for what may seem a high shipping cost but the package with the book is heavy ( 2,5 Kgs ) and the French post office also increased its prices. We also ship the books in the best box you've ever seen for a book to make sure they arrive in good condition, and this has a cost.
Usually the Special Offer includes a great additional surprise gift, but because we celebrate two anniversaries, this new special offer will include TWO great surprise gifts ( and believe me, you'll be VERY happy to get them! )!

Disneyland Paris 25th Anniversary Press Event happened yesterday. You were not there? No problem as D&M has plenty of videos for you to show you what happened thanks to Max, D&M contributor and DLPWelcome webmaster as well as DLP official video and pictures and more pictures from Robert Stallard, faithful D&M reader!
Disneyland Paris has been very lucky for the weather during the press event day as it was cloudy and grey all week and on Saturday the sky was blue and sunny over the resort!
Walt Disney Parks and Resort Chairman Bob Chapek and Disneyland Resort Paris President Catherine Powell launched the 25th Anniversary ceremonies in front of Sleeping Beauty Castle with a look back at the history of the resort; the honor that it has had upholding Walt Disney’s legacy of making dreams come true for guests around the world – with a nod to making more dreams in the future.
“Since it opened its gates in 1992, Disneyland Paris has been a place where the young and young at heart can step into the worlds of their favorite stories, meet beloved characters, and become part of the magic in a way that only happens at a Disney Park,” Chapek said. “And we’ve got even more magic in store for our 25th anniversary.”
Powell also talked about the legacy she feels as the resort’s leader.
“We are proud to bring Walt’s heritage to life in the heart of Europe, to have made strong ties with Paris and France and to have made our guests dreams come true for more than a quarter of a century,” said Catherine Powell, President of Euro Disney S.A.S., “Now, more than ever before, Disneyland Paris is looking to the future, and continuing to exceed our Guests’ expectations.
The ceremony ended with a dazzling finale of fireworks led by Tinker Bell herself and a host of Disneyland Paris cast members and favorite Disney characters.
DLP released a video of the 25th Anniversary celebration and of the press event, here they are!
Among the VIP guests was actress Teri Hatcher - from "Desperate Housewives" who came with her father and was discovering the park for the first time!
Max has some great HD videos for us, and let's start by one filmed a day earlier and showing the 25th decorations.
Next here is what, according to Max, is the best, i.e the new 25th Anniversary "Disney Stars on Parade" with an editing including the filming on two different locations! Don't miss the awesome steampunk dragon!
DLP also released an official video of the parade, here it is!
There is also two different shows on the castle stage, mainly for young children, and the first video below shows the Starlit Princess Waltz show.
And here is DLP official video of the Princess Waltz show.
The second video below shows the Mickey Presents: Happy Anniversary Disneyland Paris show.
Here is DLP official video of the Happy Anniversary show.
This week-end was also the official reopening of Star Tours and Max has new videos for us showing the inside of the new ( and great ) Star Traders shop at the exit of the ride and the meet and greet with Darth Vader in the "StarPort", formerly the Star Traders shop.
