Disneyana Fan Club's Newsletter (Disneyana Dispatch Newsletter)

The Disneyana Fan Club's official publication, the Disneyana Fan Club's Newsletter, includes exciting photos, news and information on the world of Disney, as well as various information on Club news and events.   This fantastic publication is truly a valuable perk of Club Membership, and will delight Disneyana Collectors, Disney History buffs, and Disney Theme Park Visitors alike with its recounting of  special excursions (like our Club trip to Tokyo Disneyland Resort), guest speakers at Club Events (such as Bill Farmer and Margaret Kerry), and exciting interviews.   The Disneyana Fan Club's Newsletter also devotes pages to classified ads, where Club Members can seek to buy, trade or sell items of Disney memorabilia.  Advertising in the Classified section is free to Club Members. You may download a preview of our publication by clicking here.
