[Text by Amberle Ferrian] "Mickey and Minnie's Anniversary" (minminan.gif, 1016x730x2, 16118 bytes) is the 31st in a continuing series of fine Disney fanart drawings by Bob Ito and the 10th in the so-called "Bucketland Cards" series of handmade greeting cards, "when you're too cheap to buy a card". :-) Minnie and Mickey have celebrated over a half-century together, yet for some reason, they never did manage to tie the knot. So in a sense, this image of the Mice sharing a piece of their wedding anniversary cake here is pure fantasy. But in another sense, it is not, for the Future Disney Cabinet's Walkaround Mickey and Minnie, r.a.d netters Rich and Carol Koster did in fact celebrate their anniversary in December, an occasion which was not forgotten by Bob or their other net friends on r.a.d and in the FDC. We hope that the Kosters' special day was as romantic as Mickey and Minnie's here is. This is a handmade anniversary card that Bob drew for Rich and Carol Koster, and is posted with their permission. It's divided into three parts: Top left: front of card Right: inside right of card Bottom left: back of card with "Bucketland Cards" slogan As with all "Bucketland Cards", all personal messages have been deleted. Happy anniversary, Rich and Carol, and fondest wishes for many more to come.
