- Hey, how's it going? - Hi, there.
How are you?
All right.
"Disneyland Game-- A World in Itself."
Walt Disney.
Rand McNally.
This is really, really neat.
I really like this.
I go to Disneyland every year.
I absolutely love it.
We have this trip that we try to do once a year.
The kids love it.
I'm still at the stage where my 15-year-old is coming with us,
you know-- - Yeah.
--hanging out with the family.
That'll end soon.
[chuckles]
[baby crying]
I came down here to sell my Disney globe.
It's so cool because it just shows the magic
of Walt Disney's imagination.
It shows what he was thinking when
the park was going to open, all the rides, all the lands.
It shows Walt Disney's heart and passion about Disneyland.
This is early stuff here.
The mono-railway.
There's a couple other rides that--
We've got Tomorrowland.
Highway of Tomorrow.
There's the teacups.
Pinocchio's whale is still there.
You know, if you travel through the park,
and you follow the trail that's on this map,
you can really feel what he had in mind
when he made Disneyland.
He had such a hard time convincing people
that Disneyland would work.
No one got his concept.
I mean, there's so many little things about Disneyland people
don't realize.
Like when you're looking at the French Quarter,
OK, you ever look up just above the buildings?
No.
If you do, you'll see ships' masts and some sails.
You'll think you're right next to the harbor.
I have to go back.
You know, he invented the theme park.
There wasn't even such a thing as a theme
park before Disneyland.
He was definitely an American icon
and had a vision like no tomorrow.
People love anything to do with Walt Disney or Disneyland.
But just because people love something
doesn't make it valuable.
I would love to get this for the shop,
but it has to be for the right price.
Hopefully, this guy hasn't spent too much time in Fantasyland.
[chuckles]
So do you want to sell it?
I'm looking to sell it.
And how much do you want for it?
Looking for $3,500.
Um.
It's a rare piece.
From what I understand, one of three.
Where did you get it?
I bought it online.
Some estate sale.
RICK: OK.
I'm going to call somebody up. - OK.
I got a friend.
That's all he deals in is rare weird toys.
SELLER: OK.
And he will know everything there is to know about it.
I'm anxious to hear more.
OK.
So I'm going give him a call.
Hang out, maybe buy something.
OK.
Think what you can spend that money on.
- You got some Disney stuff? - [chuckles]
And I'll be right back. - Thank you.
He's going to be calling in one of his friends,
and we're going to get some more information, an appraisal
of what its actual value is.
My gut's telling me that we're going to make some kind
of a deal in the $2,500 range.
I think that's what the piece is worth.
- Johnny. - Hey.
What's up, man? How's it going?
- Good to see you. - Hey.
How's it going? Nice to meet you.
I have here a Disneyland globe before there was a Disneyland.
[chuckles]
Cool, man.
Yeah, old tin lid though, man?
This is cool.
Made by Rand McNally.
JOHNNY: Yeah, the mapmaker.
Yeah.
Yeah, they've been around for a long time.
It's really cool, man.
What do you want to know about it?
What do you know about it?
Well, this is one of the cool items
that it was sold at the park.
This definitely would have been a game.
There had been, like, four or five pieces.
There'd be little magnets with little cardboard
cutouts on the top.
And it would have been a simple dice game,
and you would have kind of made your way
around the park and stuff.
But this globe here would have probably retailed for about $5
back then.
So have you seen one of these before?
I've only seen a few.
Not too many of them come to market.
They're pretty rare.
They didn't make a lot of them, I don't believe.
They were a big hit in the park.
You mind if I take a closer look,
just kind of see what we got here?
I mean, aesthetically, overall, I mean, the lithograph,
the colors are nice.
We have a few condition issues.
Yeah, we've got an indentation here.
Yeah.
And I don't think that was there when I bought it.
OK.
So what do you think it's worth?
Well--
[sighs]
--it's Disney.
You can sell it to just about anybody.
Everybody loves Disney.
And it's classic from the beginning of the park,
so it's got a lot of things going for it.
The only thing is we're missing the game pieces.
With that being said, you should have no problem moving it for--
in the $400 to $500 range, I would say.
RICK: OK.
So there's-- he was saying he thinks there's only like
two or three of them out there.
I don't think they come to market very often,
but I know for a fact there's not
just two or three out there.
OK. Thanks, man.
All right. Cool.
Thank you.
JOHNNY: Take care.
I think the seller's asking $3,500
or thinking it's worth a lot more is really off the mark.
The ones that I've seen the past definitely
haven't sold for that much.
[sighs]
He says, like, $400 or $500. SELLER: No, no.
I understand.
OK.
I could do $300 just because I really dig Disney.
I think it's cool.
It's a cross collectible, it's made by Rand McNally,
and it's Disney, so--
Um.
I'll give you $350.
No, I don't think so.
I think I paid three times that, so.
OK. Good luck to you.
- I thank you for your time. - OK.
And keep in touch with me because I
get a lot of Disney stuff in here if you collect the stuff.
Yeah. Thank you.
All right.
Have a good one, man.
So I think the offer of $350, I think he had to go
with what his expert told him.
But I think his feeling was a little bit
drier than my passion for it.
