Who’s Goofy?
I’m combining two goofy posts into one, featuring Goofy and Mike V. Who you calling goofy? I’m certainly not calling you goofy, Mr Vallely, Sir. What we have here are two items that are only marginally related at best, because they both feature the Disney character known as Goofy. There’s a glutton of Goofy products with skateboards, only one of which I’ve featured here before. I’ve got others on deck though. (I slay myself…) On the left, original artwork and press proofs for an 80’s era Aladin lunchbox featuring Goofy and the gang at a skatepark. On the right, someone auctioned off Mike V’s season pass to Disneyland.
Although this auction originated in the US at (Ryannes Valley Vintage) the lunchbox was only sold overseas. Here’s the artwork on the board with the proofs.
The original uncropped artwork.
Detail of the note in the corner.
Two proof sheets
Single Proof. Made in Venezuela? I would have guessed China or Taiwan.
This is a single printed sticker, before it is applied to the plastic lunchbox.
Here’s a photo of an actual lunchbox that has seen better days.
And therm there’s this. Somehow, someone got ahold of Mike Vallely’s expired season pass to Dinseyland from 1994-1995, and sold it for $62. Now that’s skateboard history!
I like how Goofy is ‘hang-tenning’ out of that ramp.
It’s Mike’ passport to fun. Just look at that smile.
