Title: Disneyland Paris from sketch to reality
Post by: Magic M on March 31, 2009, 09:28:17 PM
I've read a few reviews online of the imagineering book "Disneyland Paris from sketch to reality" but does anyone here own a copy?

Is it available in DLRP?  The last time I was there I picked up the Imagineering book and (although rather expensive) it is just tremenous.

I'm guessing if its available anywhere then it will be at the Art of Disney Animation Store.

Help please!!

I own a copy of this book and it is beautiful - yes, it's expensive, but well worth it in my opinion.  I have seen copies at the Art of Disney Store, and also in Town Square (The Storybook Store).

I bought the book from Amazon France 2 years ago. Its an amazing book and has so many concept drawings for the park, everything could have been so different.

I bought the book from the Storybook Store on Main Street just this last trip :)

It is expensive, but it's high quality and very interesting. If the history of the park is your thing, it's worthwhile (though maybe once the exchange rate recovers).

I hate to ask (but i'm going to!!) how much is this book?? I'm taking my first trip there this year and would much prefer to bring home things like that that countless teddies.

Yes.. I have to say that it's a must buy for all DLRP Fanatics...  :D/  :D/  :D/

When I got it, it was discounted to €39.90 I think..  :) But it was somewhere near the €60 at full price back in 2006..  :D

I own it too and it is a must-have as Javey says.

I got it from Harrington's on Main Street U.S.A.

I love this book. I bought it in DLRP a few years ago (got it half price too  :D ) and the book is simply a must. Beautiful book, lots of great insights, I didn't think it would be possible but after reading it, it made me love DLRP even more.

I recommend it to everyone.
