Souvenir Friday- Knott's Berry Farm Mailing Box

This souvenir Friday I decided to showcase another park with this wonderrul illustrated mailing box from Knott's Berry Farm in Buena Park. This appears to be from the early 1950s before most of the rides and expansion of the park. The scenes are focued on the Ghost Town and I like the Panning for gold shot. Also what is neat is the tag line on one of the sides that the attraction was owned and operated by the founders Mr. and Mrs. Walter Knott and family. So for all those folks out there who appreciate the quiet charm that Knotts once had, I present this box.

Neat box...any idea what was shipped in this kind of box? It looks too small for shipping jams and jellies anyway!

Many of my fondest memories of Knott's are from many hours exploring the old ghost town.
