On the deck of the Jolly Roger, Peter Pan and Captain Hook have their finale fight in a concept painting by Mary Blair. “It’s a Small World” opened at Disneyland in May, 1966 based on the design by Mary Blair for the 1964 World’s Fair in New York City, New York. Mary Blair’s concept painting of mermaids, each in a different color palette to convey personality and mood, graced the cover and interior of Walt Disney’s Peter Pan by Dave Barry and Ridley Pearson. 39 35 39
