Like Tom Sawyer's Island" it was an attraction that you could stay in as long as you liked. "20,000 Leagues" was my favorite movie back then (I still love it, though it's no longer my favorite) and I'd read the book many times, so I would go into the "20,000 Leagues" exhibit and pretend I was Captain Nemo, and stay there for HOURS.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29249921.post-1156082397305400512006-08-20T06:59:00.000-07:002006-08-20T06:59:00.000-07:00Thanks for all the info; and yes, I just recently ...Thanks for all the info; and yes, I just recently picked up a copy of the Nickel Tour book.

Great shot - I love the obscure stuff more...<BR/><BR/>It would be cool if you could lighten up the "next show at" sign in Photoshop, so we can see into the building...<BR/><BR/>Actually - it would be even better if you made the pictures larger - I WANT LARGER PICTURES! In fact - why don't you just mail me a silver nitrate print, 11 x 17" please...Chris Merritthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12759410855891198273noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29249921.post-1155836638357074502006-08-17T10:43:00.000-07:002006-08-17T10:43:00.000-07:00Great pic!

Dave, you mentioned that you have a Viewmaster collection....the first Tomorrowland packet (with the vivid pink around the photo) has an entire reel devoted to the 20K attraction, in Kodachrome AND 3-D! And if you have the scarcer souvenir packet sold in the park, the images are slightly different (though similar).Major Pepperidgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09843598326995116014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29249921.post-1155834759137399172006-08-17T10:12:00.000-07:002006-08-17T10:12:00.000-07:00Hey Dave check this link it kind of gives you a fe...Hey Dave check this link it kind of gives you a feel for the exhibit.

(You can buy the CD featuring the early issues from the E-Ticket Magazine website.) Also in the Nickel Tour book by David Mumford and Bruce Gordon there is a page on the exhibit. If you do not own a copy of the Nickek Tour book, I highly recommend you get a copy of it. They can be found on E-bay each week for about $100 or so.Matterhorn1959https://www.blogger.com/profile/07140583153080149244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29249921.post-1155815388664098372006-08-17T04:49:00.000-07:002006-08-17T04:49:00.000-07:00It had sets and showpieces from the film.It had sets and showpieces from the film.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
