Once again, in no particular order, here is a series of great photos of Walt and his creations that I found on ebay this morning and that I had never seen before. The first caption reads:

    If memory serves, neither of the two gentlemen with Princess Margaret and Disney is Lord Snowden. Lord Snowdon was younger and had a full head of hair then.
