Disneyland - Entertainment Backstage Passes

Here's a couple of sets of Disneyland Entertainment Backstage Passes. Fun as they are, I have no idea what these are for or how they were used or how old they are.





I wonder if the triangles meant something different than the rectangles?

Coil Box Courier - August 1958

Welcome to Magazine Monday (on Tuesday). Technically this isn't a magazine, it's a newsletter, but close enough. From August 1958 it's the Coil Box Courier, a newsletter for antique automobile buffs (The Horseless Carriage Club of Southern California).








Break out the sewing machine and you to have your very own wardrobe for Disneyland!










Go back to 1958 and buy some of these "oldies", store them for 50 years and your rich!

Disneyland Car Pass's

At one time free parking tickets to Disneyland only meant a savings of small change. Today a free parking ticket is worth the price of a good meal. This first ticket is from 1978 and was mailed to a guest from Disneyland's public relations department. You'll see the letter and parade tickets around Christmas time.





I don't have a date on this one, the "X" in the serial number usually means this is a courtesy ticket. If so, the ticket above really should have an "X" also, one of the many ticket mysteries.

Disneyland Today - July 14-20, 1990

It's Disneyland Today – 2o years ago today! July 14 -20, 1990. What better way to start the 90's than to have huge balloon characters roaming down Main Street.






Don't miss the Dick Tracy Musical Review at Videopolis, I sure did. I never understood the pastel-colored Dick Tracy of 1990, too weird. Lot's of ticket choices, the annual pass is a bargain at $165 (with parking).






There is so much (too much?) going on the main page here you almost forget there are rides too! Don't forget, the Pigskin Classic begins August 26th.






Only Disneyland can throw a party this big a GEO, huh, where the Cadillac's they gave away in 1985!





The old parking lot maps make me smile.
