So here is the story of Walt Disney's Lamp! If you have never heard of it, their is a lamp that sits on a small table in his private apartment above the Fire station in DisneyLand. The story goes...
Walt Disney liked to work and he worked a lot! So often that on many evenings he would work from his private apartment above the fire station in DisneyLand. This became his "Home away from Home". Whenever Walt would be in DisneyLand he would go and put the light on in his apartment to give a signal that he was in the park. This became well know to the Cast Members who worked during this time and would know to be on their best behavior! This light stayed on all the time during his time there.
All the Cast Members would look for this light when in the park as well as some guests who knew to look for this signal. Well when Walt died very expectantly, the Cast decided that this light would stay on all the time as a perpetual reminder of Walt and a symbol that Walt is in the park (in spirit) all the time!
Not too many people know this nor understand this but when we tell it to them they get a tear in there eye! One picture is of the actual lamp that I took and the other is of a special pin they give to those who have seen the apartment!
