A lot of Joe Rohde’s influence can be seen throughout Disney’s Animal Kingdom, but he’s had his hand in creating so much more in Disney as well! If you’re a big Joe Rohde or Disney Imagineering fan, we have some exciting news for you. You might be able to get your hands on some authentic pieces from Joe Rohde’s personal collection!
That’s right, Joe Rohde is holding a virtual garage sale on eBay, and he’s selling some pretty unique stuff! We’re getting some big Animal Kingdom vibes from this diverse selection.

Rohde has created an Instagram account specifically to promote his garage sale! He currently has 7 items for sale on his eBay page including authentic masks, helmets, and more.

Rohde even made one of these items himself! He sketched these Lionesses in the Serengeti on plywood.
