Finally...for all you vintage Disneyland Geeks you get some images that might stir you up this morning. Here are 3 shots from a batch marked "1956 Vacation" that show Tomorrowland. The first one I believe is a rare interior shot from the 20K Leagues Under the Sea Exhibit, which happened to be an excellent example of recycling by Walt. The 2nd one is from the Kaiser Aluminum exhibit (Thanks, Major!):
This dark image shows the Rocket to the Moon attraction interior. Ready for blast off?
See more vintage and contemporary Disneyland photos at my main website.
Isn't that second one from the base of the Kaiser Aluminum telescope?
ReplyDeleteMajor - yes! That makes much more sense! Thanks for the eagle-eye!
ReplyDeleteThanks Major! Thanks Daveland! These images "stir me" which makes me a Disneyland Geek! : )
ReplyDeleteWell done to both of you... I don't think I've ever seen these images before on the Daveland site... but then again... I know I had my "dark months" where I visited no one. ;-)
I love all three photos but it looks as if the first image has a background painting behind it. I wonder what scene it might have been. There is an obvious mooring line... with moss or seaweed on it and what appears to be a wooden structure. Huh?
Also, this first photo begs a question. Was this part of the 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea exhibit sitting in water... or on concrete?
Always your pal,

Wow, these are some pretty esoteric stuff.
ReplyDeleteI would never have guessed the Kaiser pic, and the Rocket to the Moon, just too amazing.
Thank you Dave, and Major P.

Ditto all above. Thanks, guys - some really neat stuff here. Would love to see the rest of this photographer's vacation.
