Snowglobe - Disney theme park

This is my first Disney Snowglobe. Actually, I have been in love with snowglobes for more than a decade. Snow globe is a transparent sphere usually made of glass or plastic with miniature scenes or objects, water and white particles of "snow", which when shaken, falls on the scenery.

From what I've read, snow globes was believed to originate from France during the early 1800s. In 1889, a snow globe featuring a model of the newly built Eiffel Tower was produced to commemorate the International Exposition in Paris which marked the centenary of the French Revolution. Snow globes became popular throughout Victorian-era Europe, with snow globes featuring religious figures, scenes, medals, flowers and other objects produced and sold in Germany, Russia, Poland, England and other countries. Snow globes sometimes have a built-in music box that plays a Christmas carol or other songs.

My colleague, Pui Nawaporn visited Los Angeles in April 2010. Out of my request to buy one of disney snow globes, she was so kind to carry this for me.

This Snowglobe featuring favorite Disney characters enjoying the Parks with Alice in Wonderland in teacup on top, Mickey Mouse and Minnie in the globe while the wonderful characters of Disney such as Snow White, Peter Pan, Pinocchio, Aurora Princess, Nemo, Merlin and other disney characters circle the base of this snowglobe.

After this snowglobe is under my possession, I started to fall for other disney snowglobes. After searching the internet, I couldn't wait to have more of them. Gosh, they are so beautiful. Thank you Pui, it's now my most favourite collectible.
