Disneyland Line - July 7, 1977 & July 8, 1976

How about a couple Disneyland Lines? The reader that requested more Disneyland Lines might regret that request after a couple hundred of these! Today is two-for-one day, but don't be surprised to see this same post tomorrow...

From 7-7-77 this issue had a great article on the Skyway.

From July 8, 1976 this issue has a nice detailed article on the Tahitian Terrace.

Union Pacific Railroad July 1965 Calendar

Happy July everyone, let’s start out the month with this July 1965 page from the Union Pacific Railroad 1965 calendar. This calendar is huge measuring just over 24” by 12”.





Here’s a close up of the super castle photo. This reminds me of the Wonderful World of Disney TV show opening. What sort of ritual are they performing at the entrance to the castle?





What a fantastic headquarters building, I think it’s still there (link).




The Union Pacific West... A Four Season VACATIONLAND!!!!





1965 was an excellent year.

Disneyland - Length of Stay Tickets 1994

Here's some interesting Disneyland Passports. Exclusively for Disneyland Hotel guests, these "Length of Stay" passports are good for a variable number of days. "valid through check out" - so if you are stay at the hotel for a month I guess these would be good for the entire stay?




I like the "Mickey ears in the Jet plane" as part of the Walt Disney Travel Co. Logo.




The codes are interesting, "3DAYLOSWDTAD94" "94" is probably the year, "AD" must be Adult, the "3DAY" part seems wrong as these could be good for a different amount of days.




The code on the Child's ticket is even stranger, "2DAY"??? - Maybe these were just codes for accounting?

What a great picture they put on the opening page.




Fun map, Tomorrowland is about to go thru some cool changes.






Great article, you’ll have to download the entire issue to read the rest.




Color centerfold of Walt’s Disneyland.




A rather contemporary advertisement for Kodak.




The back cover usually has a Knott’s Berry Farm advertisement, but the opening of Universals Studios Gates took its place.
