America Sings is seriously one of my favorite vintage Disneyland attractions. I've seen it in person at least 50 times, one day in the early 80's I had an "all you ride" passport ticket and saw this attraction about 10 times that day. (ok,
About a dozen years ago I had the honor of spending time at a cocktail party with Bob Gurr (the man knows how to mix a cocktail, trust me, ever heard of a Gurrtini?). He was so kind and amused me by answering some fanboy questions and signi…
Here's a nice unused ticket for Disneyland's Helicopter service, LAX to Disneyland via Los Angeles Airways. While not dated I would place this near 1960 based on the bargain price of $7. Odd this ticket was never used. Based on the Disneyla…

i miss those years too. And I was a JC skipper during those years. Yes, we are all young like that once. LOVE IT! Any chance of getting the mag as a PDF? "Eventually they're even going to build a city!" No, 70s girl, they're not. Not ever.
I stayed at the Hotel in April and November 1982 with my dad while he was on convention. Disneyland was closed on Mon & Tues, and as a result I had to drop a lot of quarters at the Hotel arcades playing PacMan, Berzerk, Asteroids, etc. Had
I remember when there was a B of A Versatel machine to the left of the Disneyland entrance! Oh, VERSATEL, I almost forgot how to read you, it's been a while. And the Mark Twain at night promoted on the front of a map! Those images are so to…
I used to love that Global Van Lines building and the sculpture in front of it. When we would see it, we would know that we were finally at Disneyland. To me, that building always looked like it was straight out of Tomorrowland. I think tha…
Neat souvenir guide...! I have to admit that when the Peanuts characters were introduced at Knott's, it felt like the park had undergone a major change, one that made the place feel more like a generic amusement park. If you know what I mea…
Great photo - that framing of the doorway sure makes it cool! I don't have a guess about the date of the photo, but it is a very nice picture! I'm holding out for late '60's. The lady with the scarf, the kid in the white shirt, fonzie look-…
