Teacups
Two more images from the glass slides. The two young ladies are cute in their red and white outfits. Notice the signs in the background, especially the shield with the grapes on it for the Welch's Grape bar.
I remember the murals on the walls in Welch's. Illustrations of the Centaurs, unicorns and forest creatures that populate the second movement of Beethoven's Pastoral Symphony 6 in the movie Fantasia.
Of course, I didn't know that then, and I always wondered what movie they were from, in that distant era before VCR.
That was cool!
ReplyDeleteI like the soft color in these slides, it reminds me of old magazine ads. Plus they are crisp and clear!
ReplyDeleteI like the first picture especially, I wonder if the photographer tilted the camera deliberately. Helps a lot.
ReplyDeleteSomething I really liked about the old Fantasyland is that even though they use every color under the sun, they don't fight with one another.
Welch's Grape Bar, how I miss thee!
LOL...I found out as a kid that a real dangerous thing to do is drink Welch's Grape juice before going on the Tea Cups...
ReplyDeleteLove the Welch's Grape Juice, and the Orange Juice store on Main Street. Both are missed!

Do you ever get pics of that interior?
