  • Thanks for posting, was on pins and needles all day to see if I won my decade. Wish I had gotten more votes. What a great contest. I enjoyed each part of it! I hope you consider doing another! 🙂

  • I’m rooting for the Walt one since nothing says Disneyland like a picture with a family WITH the one and only Walt Disney! Glad to see Pluto isn’t hurting for love. 3 pictures, wow!

  • I love the photos from the ’50s and the ’60s. It was tough for me to choose which one of those two to vote for since both were great. Congrats to all the lucky people whose photos were selected. This was a fun contest and I hope it gets repeated in the future.

  • I like the candid shot from the 80s…it is the only one that is not “posed”

  • The joy in the face of the little girl in the Minnie dress hugging Mickey sure sums up the fun and excitement that has been had by millions over the last 60 years. All awesome pics, but I hope she wins!
