Souvenir Friday- POP Souvenirs

Today's post features part of my collection of Pacific Ocean Park souvenirs. First up is an employee badge, a costume patch which went on the striped jackets worn by employees, a 1963 season pass that admitted the owner and a guest, a ticket scrip book for the games of chance and skill, and a neat hand colored postcard of the Octopus, Sea Dragon and theming for Mystery Isle. Collecting POP items is interesting as there are hoards of tickets out there. This is due to the final auction included the tickets and other items that were left over.

Love the seahorse patch. It reminds me of the three seahorses atop the Looff carousel at the Boardwalk here in Santa Cruz. Nice collection!

Yes, the patch is my favorite too. Wish I had one!! I have 2 or 3 nice POP items, now that Chris' book is out I should post them on GDB.

The POP patch is classic.
