REMEMBER THE MAGAZINE GUYS AND GALS?

Book page image

Walt Disney’s Magazine (formerly as Walt Disney’s Mickey Mouse
Club Magazine
) was a magazine that was launched in late 1955 
and produced by Disney Studio staff members and published by
Western Printing in New York.

Originally designed to promote The Mickey Mouse Club, the focus
shifted to Disney productions in general by the middle of the
second volume, when the name was changed. The first volume
was issued quarterly, the remaining three volumes bimonthly.

For the last volume, the physical size of the magazine was reduced
about 10%, while the number of pages increased slightly and better quality paper was used.

In 1962, Disney bought out Western Printing’s interest in all of its
Disney related items, including this magazine, which had ceased publishing several years earlier.
