Collector's Call
Garner Holt- Disney Animatronics
Synopsis
"Garner Holt is a designer and manufacturer of animatronic figures for medical, military, and entertainment uses; but in Garner’s case, his business is also very much his pleasure. He’s assembled a world-class personal collection of animatronics and other artifacts from Disney theme parks, and has invited Lisa and Collector’s Call to come on in and possibly hop on board! Among the spectacular pieces we’ll feature are a Dumbo vehicle from the aerial ride named after the cartoon elephant; a turtle from Disneyland’s original Submarine Voyage ride; a pirate-ship themed car from the Peter Pan attraction; and a toboggan-shaped Matterhorn ride vehicle. Garner also share some other pieces of vintage Disney park memorabilia, including a Disneyland Opening Day gold ticket for VIPs; and Adventure Thru Inner Space miniature; and more. Disney-park expert and collector Joel Magee joins Lisa, and both sets a value on Garner’s 900-piece collection, and makes a bid to trade one of his own treasures for something he’s got his eye on."
