Things From the Gate- 1965 Gate Map
From Disneyland Tencenniel Celebration comes the 1965 gate map brochure. A slight reworking of the previous brochures on the front. I have always liked the Tencenniel logo.
A different and more detailed map of the park on the inside.
It's breathtaking to think of how quickly the park matured in its first ten years. I'll bet Walt had a backload of "good ideas" that could not be financed in 55, but promptly bloomed when the financing became possible.
And the fact that he wasn't paying himself 500 hundred bazillion dollars a year helped.
So simple and yet, so cool. I love the graphics on the "cover".
ReplyDeleteThis is one of my favorites!

One of my favorites too (and one of my first to collect!) Thanks for sharing!
