An "extremely urgent" delivery here too! I should think so!











Fantastic book, well worth the price for any fan. Very much the "what happened next" after From Sketch to Reality and incredibly comprehensive, covering all aspects and areas of the resort from parks to hotels, Disney Village, Val d'Europe, partner hotels and even a few pages on Villages Nature at the end. By fans, for fans.

What I love about it is that it's so honest. It's not saying that everything has gone perfectly, but it still gets across all the great things that have happened in the past 20 years.

I would love a copy of this book!

Does anyone know if copies are still available? Is it worth me dropping them an email?

There'll be enough copies to last over a year. It's definitely worth getting. :D

Thank you for the quick reply. I've emailed and am ready to part with my cash!

I always go to DLP with my sister - I can't wait to see her face when I tell her about it!

Thanks!  :oops:
I've worked on this book with Jérémie and you'll be happy to learn that Eurosouvenirland.com has been a great resource to help us shape the graphic design of each year!  ;)

Just got my copy and am very impressed with the contents. Only gripe I have, its overpriced! My opinion is that it should be at least 10 euros cheaper. Will settle down to enjoy it now I have got that off my chest!

Wow, really! I was actually already planning to write a review of the book as one of the first posts on the upcoming Euro Souvenirland blog, so that's a guarantee now.  ;)

But what I wouldn't give for the access to the archives you must have had for this project! As the Parcorama blog review says, it's impressive how many unseen things there are in the book. It's feels genuinely new.

And it really is great to see the very strong, unique, original graphic design being rediscovered like this in the pages of the book. Hopefully as the resort ages more, it'll be celebrated even more in the same way Disneyland celebrates its 1950s designs (in the refurbished Disneyland Hotel for example).

Are there French and English versions of the book? Or just one version with both languages?

Also I'm going to DLP in December do you think there will still be copies available?

Book is one version with both English and French.

Not sure.  I bought my copy thru DLP Mail Order as I knew I would be dissappointed if I could not get a copy when I'm there at the beginning of next month.

It depends on how popular it is. If I was in your position, I'd get it now, but it's up to you. :)
