Annette Funicello Personal Property Photo WDW Emporium 1992 Masquerade Bear QVC

Description: Annette Funicello Personal Property Photo WDW Emporium 1992 Masquerade Bear QVC THE ANNETTE FUNICELLO COLLECTION: The Personal Property of Annette Funicello Authorized and Authenticated by the Annette Funicello Research Fund for Neurological Diseases Item: Annette's personal candid photograph as she prepares to sign the paw of her rarely seen "Masquerade Bear" at the Emporium at Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom.  This particular bear was also featured on QVC in 1992. Date:  June 25, 1992 Photographer:  Lou DiSalvo Description:  This photo was taken when Annette and her husband, Glen Holt, flew to Walt Disney World for the launch of her new teddy bear collection for the Annette Funicello Collectible Bear Company.  Pictured adjacent to Annette is "Michael" (representative of the LL Knickerbocker company); and behind Annette is a Walt Disney World cast member (appears to be wearing a WDW 20th Anniversary name badge from 1992:  "Mary").  Several of Annette's collectible bears are displayed on the shelves at the Emporium... including the early "Annette" and "Bobby" bears. While in attendance that day, Annette and Glen also served together as the Grand Marshals of the Magic Kingdom's 20th Anniversary "Surprise Celebration Parade" (on a float accented with images of Disney's newest character, Roger Rabbit) for their ride down Main Street, U.S.A.

As Annette's disease progressed, she and Glen had redoubled their efforts to fund the critical research that is needed to fight all neurological diseases, including multiple sclerosis, the disease that Annette had so valiantly fought for more than two decades. Their relentless struggle against the disease served as an inspiration that can motivate Annette's friends and fans to participate in providing the financial support that this ongoing research requires. Perhaps Glen said it best: "I want to touch their hearts so they will go out there and help us raise some money. I am going to fulfill her wish to help find a cause and a cure." Glen faithfully cared for Annette until her passing on April 8, 2013. After Glen's passing on February 12, 2018, the Research Fund's Board of Directors stepped forward to carry on the work begun by Annette and Glen nearly three decades ago. In support of Annette's final wishes, 100% of the proceeds from these "eBay for Charity" offerings will be used to support the ongoing work of the Annette Funicello Research Fund for Neurological Diseases. The Annette Funicello Research Fund is honored with the generosity of The Walt Disney Company in re-naming the Walt Disney Studio's historic Stage 1 sound stage on June 24, 2013, forever more to be known as "The Annette Funicello Stage." Company president Robert Iger shared these personal thoughts in remembering Annette Funicello: "Annette was and always will be a cherished member of the Disney family, synonymous with the word Mouseketeer, and a true Disney Legend. She will forever hold a place in our hearts as one of Walt Disney's brightest stars, delighting an entire generation of baby boomers with her jubilant personality and endless talent. Annette was well known for being as beautiful inside as she was on the outside, and she faced her physical challenges with dignity, bravery and grace. All of us at Disney join with family, friends and fans around the world in celebrating her extraordinary life. In order to assist in reducing shipping costs for multiple same-day purchases, we will refund excess shipping charges, as needed. Please let us know if there are specific questions related to a pending purchase and/or payment. Annette's "Donor Corner" Boutique is the newest way that Annette's friends and fans can support The Annette Funicello Research Fund for Neurological Diseases. This new "boutique" within Annette's eBay for Charity store provides a means where friends can donate their own gently used treasures that can then be offered exclusively to our worldwide network of eBay collectors. 100% of the sale proceeds are dedicated to the ongoing work of The Annette Funicello Research Fund. The IRS typically considers donations of this type to be tax-deductible, though they will require an independent appraisal of the items included with those donations. We recommend discussion with a qualified tax advisor before providing inventory for our eBay for Charity Store. Each donor will also receive our dated letter of acknowledgement that details the items that have been donated to The Annette Funicello Research Fund and the items will then be offered exclusively through our eBay for Charity Store. Those interested in donating items related to Annette's career, Disneyana Treasures, or other specialty items that might be of interest to today's collectors may contact us for more information through the eBay Messaging System. As always, Annette’s eBay for Charity store is open 24/7 for your consideration, with new items posted weekly.
