Mini Oscars For Snow White
In 1938, Disney was awarded a real life Academy Award, along with seven miniature award statues that represented Snow White and her seven dwarfs. That’s pretty awesome! Far better then chocolate gift baskets although that does sound pretty good right now.
No Sir, No Facial Hair Here
When it came to the employees of Disney Land, Walt was extremely strict about enforcing a no facial hair policy. Up until 1970, this rule even applied to the guests. If a male guest had a beard, mustache or long hair they would actually be kicked out. The only exception was that of Walt’s own wonderful mustache.
