For a while Disneyland had an organ grinder and his monkey stationed at the Plaza to entertain the crowds. By the look of the kids faces in the photos, it was a definite hit. Images of the organ grinder monkey are pretty scarce, but have appeared on Daveland, Gorilla's Don't Blog and Perky Pickle blog images. Here are two more to add to the mix.
In this image, you can see a newspaper rack for the Disneyland News.
Here is a view from where the monkey played.
These are nice, I've got some photos from Knott's with a monkey, coming up next week!
ReplyDeletePatrick - Any chance that newsboy in pic 3 is Steve Martin? You should zoom in if you get a chance. Nice set of photos!
