It was a benefit similar to some companies giving a yearly turkey at thanksgiving. In the early days it also came with a ticket book for rides, but that was quickly eliminated because of scalping.CoxPilothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16284076551547506117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25922463.post-56556053214152099382009-06-20T08:46:12.198-07:002009-06-20T08:46:12.198-07:00I find the "fine print" interesting beca...I find the "fine print" interesting because it shows how the use of Disneyland and its ticketing media changed over the years.<br /><br />In 1960, it's issued to one person ONLY who must be present, and three additional people, who don't have rights for independent entry.<br /><br />By 1962, they have to prevent private party "gate crashing" by specifying the ticket is good for normal hours only.<br /><br />By 1965, notice the card has improved flexibility by permitting either the husband or wife to be the ticket holder, meaning Disney Corporate employees don't have to take the day off to send the kids to the park with mom.Katella Gatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05562521359201308834noreply@blogger.com
