ANOTHER 1956 Series, Pt. 2



We couldn’t take that newfangled Horseless Carriage up Main Street; the driver actually talked to people who smoked. So, we went with the conventional Chemical Wagon and were dropped off at Central Plaza. I have included detail shots of the entrance to the Circus Tent and the sign promoting Professor Keller’s Kitties. By this point, the Mickey Mouse Club had already “left the tent.”





No trip would be complete without a Castle shot:



Our first land today is Adventureland, and this shot shows you the ALand side of the Pavillion.



Watch out for that Rhino! He could charge your Jungle Cruise boat at any time!



And that is all for today; come back tomorrow for more 1956 goodies. To see more vintage & current Disneyland photos, visit my website.

Early Disneyland, Pt. 2



Welcome back to Disneyland, 1955. The last post left you at the gates of Adventureland. Today, we venture deep into the Jungle! First to come in view is this rare Rhino, no longer visible on the JC attraction. The natives in shot #2 look purty darn threatening! Let’s keep our boat moving!



Two shots returning to the dock and the lanai:





Now I am bored; what else is there to do around here?!? Hey, about the Indian Village, which is situated between Adventureland & Frontierland (before it was moved to the area that is now Critter Country).





Here’s a cute one of a little guest wearing his favorite Davy Crockett T-Shirt; he couldn’t wait to go to Disneyland and display it proudly. Of course I have included a close-up of the shirt:





Have no fear; we’re not done with 1955 yet; come back tomorrow for more! To see more vintage & current Disneyland photos, visit my website.
