This blog has nothing to do with gorillas (though I love 'em)...fellow bloggers have inspired me to share vintage images of Disneyland from my personal collection. But don't be surprised if you see something from a World's Fair, Knott's Berry Farm, or someplace else that is cool!

Disneyland Entrance, December 1960
I'm not sure where all the Christmas decorations have gone, you'd think that the train station would be decked out with some garlands and lights in this photo from December, 46 years ago. In any case, this is a great view taken by a guest approaching from the parking lot. In the center you can see some tour guides (in the early costumes?) waiting to greet folks, while just to the right Minnie Mouse has her back to us. Someone should tell her that her bloomers are showing!
I like the security guard riding the Harley checking out for people who parked over the line.
ReplyDeleteLove this shot. I'm still waiting for an angle a littel to the right that would show the lonely bike rack that used to be on the sidewalk.
