Concept art by co-director Kenna Harris featuring an earlier idea to reunite Jessie with an older Emily in an emotional tie back to Toy Story 2. According to the art book:

"In the film's first iterations, Jessie reunited with a much older Emily by chance. Emily was now a grandmother and introduced her beloved childhood doll to her grandbaby in a touching climactic sequence. I drew this in exploration of that special, nostalgia-filled moment. Though the film ultimately went in a different direction, we always knew that Jessie's special connection to Emily would be key to Toy Story 5."
