Knott's Berry Farm Pictures for Chris

Today's post are of four images from a View Master reel set. The set is in the vacationland series and is numbered A236 and the reels are numbered 232-A, 232-B, and 232-C. These images were picked by Chris for his upcoming Knott's Berry Farm book. Enjoy!

Interesting! I have a group of early Knott's Viewmaster packets, but haven't looked at them in so long. These are great!

I’m almost positive that the guy in the white coat in the first slide is Skip Young who played Wally on Ozzie and Harriet.

I just hope they make the cut. We are choosing photos in the next few weeks, and it's gonna be tough.

Wow, now that sundaynight mentions it, that DOES look like Wally!

I don't know about the guy in the white coat, but the guy with the dummy on his knee is Ronnie Morgan.

The guys talking to the dance hall girls are "Banjo Bert" Hansen and J.Y. "Dad" Lewis. Lewis is also the guy in the dentist's chair.

Merritt, of course, knows more about these folks than I do.

Chris: I can't tell you how much I'm looking forward to that book!

If that's not Skip Young then it's his clone!
