Welcome to Disneyland, Circa Summer 1962, The (Semi) Grand Finale

Rabu, 29 Juni 2011 0 komentar


It's a veritable Del Monte Fruit Cocktail in Heavy Syrup assortment today, as the Circa Summer 1962 batch comes to a close. Taking you back out to Central Plaza, we again see the patriotic bunting that typically adorns the park during the July 4th "season." Oh yeah...don't forget to check out that Matterhorn thing in the background!

The photographer made a short detour to Tomorrowland, just in time to get a blurry shot at The Autopia:



And then went back over to Adventureland to capture a few more crazy hats and guest's derrieres (that's French for buttocks, just in case you aren't that sophisticated).



This one is my fave for the day; not only does it show signage (Geek alert!), but it also shows the Swiss Family Robinson Treehouse under construction. That's right—the attraction about which Walt himself dared to say “And they say only God can make a tree!” I wonder if lightning struck after he said that to Julie Andrews?!?



And the final one (get out the hankies) is the wonderful Skull Rock Cove, situated behind The Chicken of the Sea Pirate Ship Restaurant. One of those semi-hidden restful areas where a handful of guests could get away from the regular crazy that often goes on at Disneyland during the summer.

This slide is from December 1968; the Haunted Mansion is not yet open, and the people in the lower left-hand corner are busy reading the sign.



And for Friday the 13th, here’s one of the Mansion’s 13-Hour Clock:



For those of you who aren’t superstitious, here’s one of the Swiss Family Robinson Treehouse, also from December 1968.


Sadly enough, this attraction is now closed for an unknown period of time; HOPEFULLY the Tarzan overlay can be removed and it will be returned to its former glory. Pipe dream? Remember, dreams do come true...for more vintage & current Haunted Mansion photos, visit my regular website.
