Wednesday/Hump Day seems like a good day to relax at Slue Foot Sue’s Golden Horseshoe Saloon in Frontierland, doesn’t it? The first two images are from Spring 1956. That Slue Foot Sue sign is a favorite of mine.
Just in case you weren’t sure, Pepsi-Cola was the sponsor. How about that A-Frame sign in front? My best guess: “ABC Radio presents Walt Disney’s Magic Kingdom. Starring Wally Boag and…” The rest is too much for my brain to comprehend today.

UPDATE 1: Daveland reader Darryl’s brain is working much better than mine today. A shot from my collection that I previously posted. Duh.
This one is from February 1964:
I call this “Law and Order”…and a really bad Christmas sweater! Sheriff Lucky ought to lock up the mother for allowing that one.
Something cool was going on here; I wonder what they were filming for?

From the other angle:
Even Sheriff Lucky looks somewhat interested in the proceedings:
Did he just shoot the cameraman? The poor little girl in the foreground is horrified! Permanent scars for adulthood are in her future.
UPDATE 2: Bryan, thanks for ALSO jogging my memory. This COULD be from the same day; Wally Boag during a Frontierland shoot-out:
See more Disneyland Golden Horseshoe Saloon photos at my main website.
You have a different photo (KTPBKKTPBK_1956_N05B) of that sign. That one is a bit sharper. My guess is:

Darryl beat me to it, good job. I went looking up other copies of that sign including the 1 hour YouTube video of the Golden Horseshoe episode. Regarding that shootout, based on what everyone is wearing. I think this was the day Wally Boag was in the shootout on the roof over the west side of the Golden Horseshoe. He did a somersault off the top roof onto the one below.
ReplyDeleteDarryl - You must have had Wheaties this morning. I most certainly did not! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteBryan - Thanks to you, too. I just added another previously posted shot from my collection.
ReplyDeleteLol, thanks Dave. Yep, that's the one! Now that I look at it I think he's actually over Don defore's BBQ.
ReplyDeleteThe Moonliner Rocket visible from Frontierland in Photo #2 - wow! Talk about “visual intrusion!"
ReplyDeleteA multi camera 'shoot'? Probably only needed one take. KS
ReplyDeleteI see a Burgess battery underneath the camera tripod. And, as that's an Arriflex 16mm Studio Camera Blimp w/Matte Box, it's probably a safe bet there's an Arriflex 16BL camera inside of it.
ReplyDeleteSome unusual 'behind-the-scenes' images'. Thanks.
