Welcome back to my blog, its been a little quiet lately, "all work and no play", bla, bla, bla.
Today we've neat old book from 1957, "This is California". Karl Obert is the photographer and there are some fine (black and white only) photographs in this book.
Where was this taken from?
Fairytale Castle... Are those the infamous "Midget Horses"?
Looks like a good size audience for the Flight Circle.
Some love for Knott's Berry Farm.
This must be the "Pike" with that freakish Hi Ride crane thing from hell.
Wow...
So that's what MacArthur Park was intended to be like.
This spot has changed very little since 1957.
This last one here is for my friend Major.

I remember there was a copy of this book at my local library, and somebody had cut the Disneyland pages out. Nice to finally be able to see them!
Thanks for posting, these are great shots, especially that "Rocket to the Moon" marquee.
Boy, what a book—it's Huell Howser before Huell Howser!

Great to have you back. And these are some interesting shots of Disneyland. I especially like that crisp picture of the Jungle Cruise dock.
California is definitely a wonderful place. All the beauty and perfect weather.

I have that book! I saved it from my mom's house after she died, because I remembered enjoying this as a kid.
Strange aside: One of the few books I've ever had with the title written in that direction on the spine.
I am really enjoying this blog, which I just discovered. I hope the dog's appetite for homework is sated, so there will be more posts!
This is California - 1957 is a fascinating look back at a different era. I was looking for OTHM Assignment Help Online to complete my assignments on the time. So I came across this informative blog.
