"HE DID SEE IT."

Walt Disney was a pioneer in the field of entertainment, producing movies with actors and with animation. Near the end of his life, Disney directed the purchase of 43 square miles of virgin land--twice the size of Manhattan Island--in the center of the state of Florida.

There he developed Disney World, the Magic Kingdom and EPCOT.

Disney died of lung cancer on December 15, 1966, a few years prior to the opening of his Walt Disney World dream project. At the opening, two friends were talking about the development, and one said, "I wish Walt could have seen it." The other replied, "Walt did see it. That's why you are seeing it now."
