This is a thermos I found at a thrift store a few months back. It's definitely not in clean (usable) condition but the metal is undented and it's cool to look at the artwork design on it. The size is 16 oz (half pint) and is made by Aladdin Industries in Nashville, TN.

There is no copyright year or date given, but based on the artwork provided, we can make assumptions on when this was created and sold in Disneyland. The newest attraction featured is Tom Sawyer Island (1956) and the use of Casey Jr as the train in the background (as opposed to the Mine Train Ride Thru Nature's Wonderland, which opened in 1960) tells us that the Mine Train Ride had not yet opened, dating the thermos some time between 1956-1960.
