Walt Disneys hand wearing the Claddagh ring (1)

Walt Disney's outreached hand...wearing an Irish Claddagh ring!

Walt is wearing two wedding rings. The conventional one (obscured by Mickey’s glove) on his left ring finger, and an Irish “Claddagh” ring on his right ring finger. He and Lillian bought the claddagh rings for one another on a trip to Ireland, and wore them every day. The ring is difficult to spot on Walt Disney World’s “Partners” statue, but easy to see on the statue that stands in the courtyard at Team Disney in Burbank
