Fun Gals, June 1960
I've been sharing scans from a batch of June 1960 slides over the past few months, but the two I'm presenting today are two of my favorites from the bunch.
It's 10:16 AM, and our group of fun-loving gals has arrived, ready for anything. The two older ladies are clearly related (sisters?), and I'm pretty sure the younger woman is part of the family too. Many wonderful posters can be seen in the background! On the ticket booth to our left, prices amaze. It appears that just admission for an adult was one dollar. A ten-adventure ticket book was $3.50 for adults, and a 15-adventure book was $4.50. Such a deal!
Next, let's skip on over to Fantasyland, and enjoy a ride on the Motorboat Cruise. I hope the women don't fight over who gets to steer (not that it ultimately mattered). Actually, now that I'm paying more attention, it looks like they might have just returned to the dock, which explains why they look so relaxed. For just a second I thought that a horse was in line in the background.

"The two older ladies are clearly related (sisters?), and I'm pretty sure the younger woman is part of the family too".
If they're not related, they definitely bought the same 'model' nose at Noses Я Us-!
Thanks, Major.
"Such a deal!" Yeahbut, ALL THE TICKET BOOTHS ARE CLOSED!!! At least, the two that we can see. I agree, the younger lass must be related because she has the same distinctive nose as the other two. [Nanook beat me to it!] And it looks like June Gloom is in full force on this day.
Ha! It does look like a horse back there! It's rare to see the Motorboat dock and queue. We usually see the boats out on the rough seas and wild, whitewater rivers. It's a miracle that any of the boats make it back to the dock!
Looking forward to seeing more of the Fun Gals. Thanks, Major.
I see the horse!
Thanks as always Major
I think Mike has stated in the past, that he has a vintage Motor Boat Cruise sign which reads, "Horses Ride For Free!" ;-)
Thanks, Major.....I like these "Fun Gals" pics.
