... Leisure object... Leisure object Walt Disney celluloid figurines of Mickey Mouse ...The Wodonga Historical Society Haeusler Collection provides invaluable insight into life in late nineteenth and early twentieth century north east Victoria.

The Walt Disney Company animation film studio was established in 1923 in Los Angeles.
