I've got a 1975 picture of the bride (still the original corpse bride then) with what looks like that same pram to her right and behind her, pointing in a different direction, but not three feet away from where it is now.HBG2https://www.blogger.com/profile/05073387557562504315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4444762441887107389.post-77179549005582281482022-03-08T22:05:35.313-08:002022-03-08T22:05:35.313-08:00I'm so glad someone finally got a photo of one...I'm so glad someone finally got a photo of one of the "funeral letters" added to the conservatory scene! From what I can tell there's a few, but that one is the only one really readable from the buggies.<br />Also, I know the attic stuff is mostly random junk (including, based on the photo of that mini model, old Disney merch--I think it matches a Haunted Mansion playset the parks sold a few years back), but has anything been said about the baby carriage in the attic, now placed across the track from Constance herself with the latest re-shuffle? The idea of Constance being around babies seems concerning in a way Disney probably didn't intend!Twilight Zonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03434334442090802879noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4444762441887107389.post-73791681070776281782022-03-08T16:22:43.141-08:002022-03-08T16:22:43.141-08:00Now I'm going to be singing "With her hea...Now I'm going to be singing "With her head tucked underneath her arm" all day!Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06169920944565828337noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4444762441887107389.post-9300505052775154892022-03-08T11:15:34.968-08:002022-03-08T11:15:34.968-08:00So happy whenever there's an update here.

Grant Cottage National Historic Landmark in Mt. McGregor NY. It remained in the house since Grant's funeral in 1885 (the site was opened as a tourist attraction only five years later).

I guess it fits in with their preoccupation with death, but man, it's weird! The "custom added gore" option just really pushes it over the top. <br />I knew you had been trying to get a clear shot of the Conservatory sign, and I'm glad you did. I agree that it adds to the scene without hitting people over the head, something the present imagineers haven't been able to accomplish in quite a while. <br />The miniature mansion is pretty lame, though. Especially since they didn't even bother to move the dollhouse. Still, it seems to be what everybody is freaking out about online, saying how wonderful it is. There's no accounting for (lack of) taste.
