Color interiors of early Marineland are quite rare - I'd love to see more!<BR/><BR/>Gorgeous Knott's shots too!<BR/><BR/>You may wanna check with Dan Goodsell on that Humpty Dumpty shot - he's kinda the kiddieland expert...Chris Merritthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12759410855891198273noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29249921.post-68613680770861028962007-12-02T20:08:00.000-08:002007-12-02T20:08:00.000-08:00I think the Humpty is from the Fresno Story Land p...I think the Humpty is from the Fresno Story Land park.Matterhorn1959https://www.blogger.com/profile/07140583153080149244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29249921.post-46481526715321293552007-12-02T18:56:00.000-08:002007-12-02T18:56:00.000-08:00You went all-out this time!I particularly like the...You went all-out this time!<BR/><BR/>I particularly like the second shot from Marineland. The buildings in the picture were then known as the Marineland Restaurant and Porpoise Lounge Cocktail Bar. <BR/><BR/>These buildings still stood as late as July, 2006. They survived the intial bulldozing of Marineland and stood forlorn (along with the Marineland Motel) on Long Point for many years afterword.<BR/><BR/>I was lucky enough to visit and get some snapshots prior to their final demise...<BR/><BR/>This area is now the sight of an exclusive condo-development.walterworldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18319070921534941313noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29249921.post-1374355479069177602007-12-02T16:36:00.000-08:002007-12-02T16:36:00.000-08:00Wow Dave, how can I top a single-day post like thi...Wow Dave, how can I top a single-day post like this?? I love the Marineland and Knott's photos (great one of the train), and that Humpty Dumpty character is too cool.

The colors on those umbrella’s is classic! These were Stereo slides, which side have we been seeing, left or right????<BR/><BR/>Wow, Marineland and Knott’s too! The Knott’s trains always seem more imposing and mean compared to Disneyland Trains. Super shot with the steam hissing around the front! <BR/><BR/>I have no idea where Humpy is from, but thanks for the nightmare inducing image!<BR/><BR/>GREAT SERIES!

Though the Knott's Indian Village wasn't very large, it made up for it in charm. Your Humpty Dumpty might be from 'Dutch Wonderland' - but there were more than a few 'Dumptys' out there. Others might have a better idea. Nice shots, Dave.<BR/>-- Kenoutsidethebermhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11272382432824523809noreply@blogger.com
