San Francisco Worlds Fair - 1939 From the narration: "A strange combination of the beautiful - the exotic - and the magnificent. A broach of rare gems on the bosom of rare gems on the bosom of the blue waters. When will mans genius ever again create so lovely a thing?"

Did Walt Disney ever see this place? Thanks to him, the answer to the question is July 17, 1955.
