In America, the Disney parks (Disneyland and 
Disney World) are producing some merchendise... 
and that's about it.  On Mickey's 50th birthday,
Disney made it a big deal, with TV specials, 
books, etc.  (Does anyone remember the Mickey's 
50th logo that appeared on the cover of ALL 
the Disney comics that year?).  And the 60th
was also celebrated -- I still have the commerative
magazine (with free fake animation cel) somewhere.

But there doesn't seem to be much done with 
Mickey's 75th
