Meet Pete's Dragon!

32 Years ago "Pete's Dragon" Premiered
Here's a flier from the Plitt Theaters
which used to be across from the Shurbert Theater
in the Century City Plaza

Like what they do in the El Captian, with live stage shows,
Buena Vista Prod. used to send out tours to promote their
New and Re Releases.
At this theater you would have meet Pete's Dragon!
which was the first stop on the tour!

3 Months later the tour cast went to New Zealand
with the Kids of the Kingdom...
Here's a program from the show there...
and this is how you would have meet Elliott

It seems I have a theme going with Disneyland Travel and Promotion
so here it is:
THE MICKEY 1
this was the Studio Jet and Walt's personal jet.
Back in the 70s and 80s the plane was also used for
Buena Vista promotional tours. Which meant when a Disney feature
was re-released into theaters [before VHS and DVD
the studio would send out a tour of Characters to promote the Movie.
We would do T.V. stations, Hospital and Mall visits
Either Fulton Burly, Wally Boag or Both would be the talent.
with a hand full of characters, a wardrobe person and 2 pilots
and some times a musician.
I had the pleasure of doing the Aristocat tour in 1981
25 city's in 28 days...

This is the cast of the Sleeping Beauty Tour 1979

and this is Fulton,inside the plane,
in his favorite chair playing cards...
he loved a good game of cards...
