Town Square, 1950's


There's a traffic jam in Town Square! Two "Gurr-mobiles" and the Surrey are waiting for the Marching Band to march out of the way. Hey Matterhorn, there's a drum head that looks much like yours (only the one in this photo is worn from so much banging).

Town Square looks so clean and bright...I like the group of girls in their poofy skirts. And I also like the Bekins wagon, I think that this horse-drawn wagon was eventually replaced with a motorized Bekins van.

Who knows, maybe Walt was up in his apartment above the Firehouse eating a can of chili when this photo was taken!

  1. And check out the set of 3 attraction posters in the background by the Bekins Van. Very cool shot.

  3. Notice the other photographer by the lamppost? How cool would it be to find his shot & run them both together? We did a thing like this in the "E" Ticket once with Walt in the opening day parade...
