Yesterday I received a package that completed a 23 year collecting odyssey. I never in my wildest dreams imagined that I would one day be able to say this: I have completed the Alice Wonderland set of Goebel figures! <insert fanfare music here>
It was a long road, that started when I found a copy of this Collector's Showcase magazine.
In the dark ages, before the World Wide Web, there were these constructions of paper issued on a periodic basis called 'magazines', and they covered a wide variety of topics. This particular magazine was all about collecting, and this issue had a very interesting article.
This article was all about the Walt Disney Studio archive, and talked about what kinds of things the archive had with a few illustrations, including this one
This was my first image of an Alice in Wonderland Goebel figure. And the hunt was on.
I have previously posted a large article on the Goebel figures
here, I encourage you to read it. Stay tuned over the next few days as I reveal the Final Four.
