Marineland in 3D!



Located in Palos Verdes, Marineland opened in 1954, one year before Disneyland. I believe these genuine FauxD© images are also from July 1955.



Anybody want to see the Humboldt Penguins?



They're from the Western Coast of South America; I can read the sign!



I’m guessing this is some kind of lobby display?



This August 1959 image came with the same batch but remains a mystery. Anyone know what it might be from?



I'm guessing this is the tale of Humpty Dumpty. But where?

Sunday Amusement Park Assortment



This is truly a mixed bag assortment as I finish up this set of July 1955 stereo slides that I have posted this week. One final DLand shot, this one showing the construction/painting of the Chicken of the Sea ship. Note the girl in front wearing the poodle skirt (without a poodle). Moving out of Disneyland, I have a few assorted Marineland shots, most likely from the same time period. First one is of the lobby of Marineland.









Now we’ll just mosey on over to Knotts Berry Farm for 3 views (the third one was marked Knotts...guess they had an Indian Village too?):







And you know me...always gotta’ have one of them durn mystery slides. Well, today is no different. Anybody able to identify this Humpty Dumpty dude? And no, zooming into the sign/banner won't help; the lettering is blurred. This one is from August 1959.
