Disney's "it's a small world" was born 50 years ago today, on the opening day of the 1964 New York World's Fair, as the UNICEF pavilion sponsored by Pepsi.
“When we completed 'It’s a Small World' for presentation at the New York World’s Fair, we felt that we had accomplished what we’d set out to do. We wanted to foster a better understanding among the nations of the world by showing the dress, the customs, the language, the music, and a little of the culture of our neighbors around the world - - and we wanted to show it to be a very happy one. And I think it’s safe to say that having fun has universal appeal.”
-Walt Disney
