Nice set of postcards from Frozen, The Lion King, The Little Mermaid, Aladdin, and more...
The media could not be loaded. This is a fantastic set of postcards of Disney animated films. This package covers about 25 years of Disney's recent history, from "The Little Mermaid" in 1989 to "Big Hero 6" in 2014 (complete list of movies at the bottom of review).Each card measures approximately 3.75 x 5.75 inches (9.5 x 14 cm). The front of each card features a piece of artwork from the film(s) The back is indeed in the style of a standard postcard, with a few lines for the address as well as a place for the postage stamp.The art is absolutely fantastic, ranging from near-completed designs to the earliest character sketches. Much of the imagery should be very recognizable for fans of the Disney movies. I've included some photos of the postcards in this review (for more images, you can visit my blog - link can be found in the comments section or by clicking on my reviewer profile).List of Movies (there are 10 postcards for each):- Little Mermaid- Beauty and the Beast- Aladdin- The Lion King- Mulan- Princess and the Frog- Tangled- Wreck-It Ralph- Frozen- Big Hero 6*NOTE: For postcards from early classics like "Snow White" and "Cinderella" you'll want to pick up a different set: The Art of Disney: The Golden Age (1937-1961).Also, Pixar movies like "Toy Story" and "Cars" are featured in a separate box: The Art of Pixar: 100 Collectible Postcards

Disney at its finest!
The card selections are quite rarely seen. Lots of work in progress cards which makes the characters more interesting on how the final look is what it is that we see today.

Beautiful Cards!
I have ordered 3 of these postcards packs - the Golden Age, the Renaissance and Pixar. The Pixar is mostly screenshots of the movies and includes a lot of ones from the shorts. Personally they are meant favorite of the 3, although there are some cool ones. The Golden Age and Renaissance ones though are just gorgeous. There's a lot of concept art and raw art sketches that are unique and beautifully done - they called to the spirit of the movies perfectly without being spot on, which I love. Of the 2, the Renaissance is probably my favorite of the three!

I am obsessed
I LOVE these. They are so sturdy and high quality. I have managed to buy all the different post card packs and I have no complaints. I use most of them for scrapbooking so the borders dont bother me since I just cut them off to my liking.

Diverse mix for hardcore fans
The media could not be loaded. This is a diverse mix of art styles from different stages of movie creation. I think these cards are great for hardcore Disney Fans. My father will send them to people that like Disney on postcrossing.The main criticism I have is, that there aren't any great images that show what you can expect when ordering this product. I hope that my images help with that.I appreciate the image description on the backside.

Disney no longer sells Post Cards at Disney World -- great value
When at Disney World we were surprised to find out that Disney no longer sells post cards. We always like to send postcards when on vacation to our family and friends. Great value and good quality.

Great for snail mail enthusiasts!
I got this set for my birthday. I love to send out snail mail and was running low on postcards. These are great. They give me a large selection of characters, movies, and styles to choose from. I love seeing the concept art and abandoned ideas from some of my Disney favorite films.These post cards are durable, colorful, have a huge selection of styles and movies, and the price is unbeatable.Recently my daughter has discovered the joy of sending snail mail and often sneaks into my stash to pick one of these out to send to her friends.I'm really glad I took a chance on these and will definitely look at ordering other similar sets when these start to run low.

Great gift for the Disney lover in your life!
I have this friend who is a Disney FANATIC. It's so hard to buy Disney things for her because she has basically everything that is sold in Disney stores or at the parks. So, I was so happy to find this postcard set. The beautiful mix of shots from movie scenes as well as concept art is so unique. I hadn't seen anything like it before, and she hadn't either. It ended up being the perfect gift, and for under $20? Doesn't get much better than that.
