Disney Ads

A COUPLE MORE ADS

Great Picture!
Isn't it sitting on the water fountain?

This is WDW
But I loved the drawing of the Characters.
[What do they feed them in FL.?]

and This isn't Disney,
but I just remember going there as a kid.

Disney Ads

PROMOTE!
The Ads for Disneyland are so great.
I found these in some old Disney News
and Disneyland Vacationland Magazines.

One Hour Photo

ONE HOUR PHOTO!
Before Digital cameras...
it was the time of the One Hour Photo!
and if you wanted your pictures NOW,
you had to hop the Monorail and head on over to the DL Hotel...

An Hour later
at the " White Rabbit 1 Hour Photo"
You'd have your memories

Pinocchio

Pinocchio's Back!

I came across these ads [Christmas 1978]for Pinocchio
and thought how wonderful it was to see
it on the BIG Screen!

Then as I was driving down Hollywood Blvd. yesterday
and I saw the Marquee for the El Captain!!!!

STARTS TODAY!!!

YEAH!

Some things just need to be seen on the BIG SCREEN
the way they were intended.

Let's hear it for the
MOUNTAINS!

Bumper Sticker from 1977 Opening!

Like they would give these out today!
