The Haunted Mansion - 30th Anniversary

The Haunted Mansion – 30th Anniversary is an album released for the 30th Anniversary of The Haunted Mansion. The original 1999 CD was a 13-track limited edition of only 999 copies, all sold out within two hours at Disneyland's special event for the Haunted Mansion's 30th anniversary. It featured a green disc, a 5-page insert/artwork, and an extra insert featuring autographs of Buddy Baker and X Atencio, the men who wrote "Grim Grinning Ghosts."
The second edition, also from 1999, immediately followed but without the 13th track. It featured a gold disc, the same 5-page insert/artwork, but no 1-page extra insert with the autographs.
The third edition from 1999 featured a standard silver disc, also had the same 12 tracks as the second edition, had a simpler two page foldout insert/artwork (same second edition front picture with different wording; the back cover was slightly re-arranged), and no 1-page extra insert with the autograph.
A 2006 version (fourth edition) with 11 tracks was released without the Disneyland Paris track, but added a Disneyland 10th Anniversary cut. Walt Disney's Welcome is missing. See the below track listing. It has a cover featuring the gate plaque on the brick columns outside of the Haunted Mansion.
