It’s September 1969 and we’re back at Disneyland. We know it’s the past, because the Autopia’s vehicles are gas-powered. Oh wait, they still are. What’s going on below? Is a Cast Member getting chastised for taking selfies? Or maybe he was late for his shift?
These two are looking over Tomorrowland from the Skyway bucket. They should be taking photos; it kind of sucks now.
PeopleMover, Matterhorn, Skyway buckets…it’s just BEE-YOO-TI-FULL!
Someone in the bucket was wise enough to be capturing these!
Here we can also see the Monorail tracks and it’s a small world.
Once they flew through the Matterhorn unscathed, the camera came out again to capture the splendor of Skull Rock Cove:
A delightful little rest/eating area, tucked away behind the Chicken of the Sea Pirate Ship:
Once more for those who haven’t read this here: I really miss this area most.
A long line for the Matterhon Bobsleds; back then, nobody cared about whiplash.
I see vintage brochuresw and a camera…and a beauty of a beehive hairdo!
An interior shot from the Carousel of Progress attraction:
I’m too lazy to figure out the placement of this area, but I am guessing it’s somewhere near Central Plaza. Perhaps what was once referred to as Alpine Gardens? If not, please don’t sue me.
A Kodak Picture Spot sign is to the left of Snow White and Dopey:
Two consecutive shots of the Disneyland Band in front of the Castle…
and one detailed view. Anyone know the conductor or band members?
Over in Storybook Land, the Bold Lochinvar boat is ready to get loaded up for another trip through Monstro.
Who’s the stuff shirt on the left? Was this when a male cast member had to be a lead because it female’s could not perform that role? He looks clueless.
Another Storybook Land shot, another aeronautic do, perfectly aerosoled.
A closeup of Peter Pan Park:
Thanks for joining me on this 9/69 tour!

I suspect the line is pretty long for those 'who miss Skull Rock, and its environs' - including me-! That camera seen in the Matterhorn line appears to be a Nikon FTn. Snazzy.
What a great series of images.
