Knott's Pan for Gold - June 1963 & Knott's Coloring Book - 1955

Here's a nice slide of Knott's Berry Farms Pan for Gold attraction, June 27, 1963. Those are some pretty authentic "cast members".





Got your box of crayons ready? Here's a great Knott's Berry Farm coloring book from 1955. The cover and illustrations are very similar to the children's book "The Knott's Berry Farm Burro in Ghost Town" (link).














Only a couple of the pages were colored in, nice job staying in the lines!

















Where's Disneyland???





Come back on Bonus Sunday for the entire coloring book, you better bring a new box of crayons!

Is that blue area in the Pan For Gold pic water? I don't remember ever seeing water behind the employees like that....and I don't remember ever seeing water THAT blue at Knott's!

I really like that coloring book!

These coloring book illustrations are fantastic. Jody and I are going to have to make some new T-shirts for ourselves, I believe. Thank you for posting these. Classic Knotts Berry Farm is the best!
