Today is the big finish, filled with lotsa’ closeups. Shot #1 is (most likely) somewhere in Frontierland. Calling all Disneyland Geeks: anybody able to figure out the location of this one? #2 is most likely in Town Square in front of the Opera House, as that seemed to be a common location for the Disneyland Band to park and play during the early years.
#3 is DEFINITELY in front of the Opera House, as this Keystone Kop gives guests a little serenade.
For the last shot, I share one that has already been posted on my Jungle Cruise Blog. This guy looks like he could be Danny Thomas’ twin.

Hmm, my guess on the first one is that he's standing directly between Aunt Jemima's Pancake House (or Kitchen depending on the year) and the Silver Banjo BBQ. The hand rail on Aunt Jemima's was slightly more ornate, but the windows and furniture on the balcony make sense:
