Peter Pan's Flight Disneyland Sign
We won the item at an auction over 10 years ago at our daughter's school and I'm afraid we don't have the paperwork anymore. We know it's from Disneyland in California.
It's 27 inches in width, 38 inches in height and 7 inches deep.

Hi Megan,
Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry.
Disneyland signs are a fun collectible that appeals to a broad range of collectors, typically driven by nostalgia for the important memory Disneyland (or Disney World) played in their upbringing. The variety of things linked to Disneyland that comes up at auction ranges from simple signs that would have been placed in numerous locations around the park to specific and possibly unique works from beloved rides. One of the highest selling objects is a wait time sign for Alice in Wonderland that sold at Van Eaton Galleries in 2023 for $28,000, against an auction estimate of $2,000-4,000

Thanks very much, Megan, this is helpful. Let me know if you have questions; otherwise, you're all set. Have a great day!

Hi Delia,
It’s mostly metal which is painted, with some composite plastics. It weighs roughly 60lbs and has a fully functional wheel which moves the wait time internal mechanism.
Feel free to let me know if you need any further detail!
Thanks,
Megan
