Description
From the 2013 Disney Imagineering Alternate Reality Game "The Optimist", a very rare and special souvenir collectible: This 12" Long Play Disneyland Record branded record album was a clue that was shipped out to only a few select players who participated, providing a much needed clue to move forward in the online and in-person team-based game.
The storyline puzzle was the conclusion to an amazing alternate reality game from Imagineering called “The Optimist” that took place during Summer 2013 and included an adventure around Disney related sites of Southern California to uncover a secret society of futurists.
The record is double grooved, not only featuring toe-tapping music but also a pair of secret narrations. Not only that, but the odd spacing of the narration preceded by three beeps indicated that it was meant to be synchronized with something. In this case, it matched up perfectly with the Carousel of Progress at Walt Disney World, the first involvement of Disney’s parks in Orlando for this game. The video above matches up the audio found on side 1 of the record with the attraction, supplementing its story with that of The Optimist, cleverly working in new dialogue to bend the meaning behind the show’s words.
Likewise, side 2 features a more consistent narration, one that seemingly matches up with a Disneyland railroad ride between the Tomorrowland and Main Street stations. Both the Carousel of Progress and that stretch of railroad featuring the Primeval World scenes are direct connections to the World’s Fair, which this story surrounds.
Truly a beautiful and special piece with fantastic memories for a worthy collector.
