1975 - The Disneyland Line

Last month I posted the first half on a
Disneyland Line from 1975...

Here's the second half:

First up is complaints and comments,
Arts and Crafts,Space Mt. update and
The Holiday Shopping Pass!!!

Next Up:
A Disneyland CLUB for Everyone!!!
and
A trip to Universal Studio's Hollywood!
All for $4.50 !
that's right Four Dollars and fifty cents!!!

T.V. taping , a trip to the Laserium,
screen The Apple Dumpling Gang,
or be "CREW" on the drama clubs
production of "1776",
My favorite is the CB club!!!

One of the best things at the park for employees
was the EMPLOYEE SALE!!!
You could pick up all kinds of great stuff for your home!
after you read this page you'll really wish
you had that Time Machine!!!

I remember I bought 2 heavy wrought iron chairs
that were from New Orleans Sq.
My mother still has them on her porch at home.

1975 - Where DL paychecks come from

For years we punched our time cards, watched the leads put in all those little numbers
and waited for our checks to arrive...well I just found this GREAT article from a 1975 Disneyland Line [and yes it was printed on pink paper], all about the Keypunch Operators and the Data Processing Dept.,the women who took those little cards with all the punches,most the time with more eraser marks and scraches, and turned them into TIMECARDS! ENJOY!

I love that in 1975 the
"Studio in Burbank houses FOUR computers!"
AND THEY WERE LEASED!

Wow how times have changed!!!
it makes me wonder how many of these women
are still with the company!

Happy New Year!!

As we head into the New Year
let's look ahead with Hope and back with
Fond Memories!

The Disneyland Line 1977

My first New Years at the park...
The Party!
The Main Gate Flier

I loved Minnie Riperton at the "Star Wars Disco"
Love the 70's
1978

Los Angeles Times Ad

The Party 78

After 6pm tickets went up...
$2.00

This next shot was from 1980 or 1981
[I can't remember which one,
I just remember it was FUN!]

For the New Years Eve party
there was an orchestra in front of the Castle...
"Father Time Goofy" made an appearance
and then at midnight,
Goofy rang in the New Year from
the top of the Castle...
See you all tomorrow...

1977 The Very Merry Christmas Parade

The Brand New Parade!
and my first job at the park.

Here's an article from the DL line 12/1/77

Here's a cast photo of everyone that was in the parade
[This was taken backstage facing toward
where the "New" parking structure now is...
I miss that Arco station]

This is Marilyn Magness presenting a cake to the cast
Marilyn staged and choreographed the whole parade

The Cake

And Believe it or not,
This is my "First" paycheck stub!

Wow! I cleared $8.57
and to think I was flying down from San Francisco to LAX
then taking a Greyhound to the DL Hotel for rehearsals!
[The flight was $12 , one way, the bus was $5 one way...
you do the math!]
I was working at DISNEYLAND!!!

Disneyland's 25th

A Silver Celebration
