Looks like the Stagecoach has been recruited to carry an adorable bouquet of colorful little seƱoritas! How could the tiny tots participate in a daily Disneyland parade? Maybe they are audio-animatronics.
Say, there's the lovable, kindly Sergeant Garcia (actor Henry Calvin); he's looking right at us! Ohmigosh, I'll never wash my eyes again. Snow Hill is in the background... in just about a year the Matterhorn would sprout up right there.
Sure, Zorro looks cool in his all-black ensemble, but this couple dazzles in their white and gold outfits on those beautiful Palominos.
This young lady sits elegantly side-saddle on her noble steed, and is enveloped in a cloud of ruffles and lace. Zorro is probably barely remembered by most Disneyland guests, but I'll bet a parade celebrating California's Spanish Colonial days would still be popular!

very nice set today! palominos are a favorite horse of mine, and i would like one of those lacy dresses, too!
ReplyDeletei wonder if those were VIPs there across the street from our photog in snap number one or just a group who didnt think to have matching t-shirts made up?
WOW! Is it just me or can you feel the excitement in these pictures? What I would give to go back and experience this first hand!
ReplyDeleteI posted this info yesterday on the earlier blog about the Zorro 1958 parade, but I think it bears repeating here at the 2nd Zorro parade blog as well. Guy Williams Jr (Guy's son) has put a video on YouTube of his Dad's appearance at Disneyland. It is silent video, transferred from home movies, and some of the footage is a bit shaky, but it is wonderful to see. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wp2NfHe2wNI
