The Agreement...

To all who come...










Fifty-seven years ago today, Walt Disney Productions and the American Broadcasting Company make it official...

They sign agreement for Walt Disney to build his dream project that will become known as the theme park. In exchange for this, Walt gets an advancement of funding and guarantee of loans, while the new network gets a weekly television show, part ownership in the risky venture and all concessions sold at the park for the first decade.

As usual, the world is skeptical of Disney's gamble...

And as usual, Walt proves the world wrong.
