The Disneyland article is this issue is all about Grad Nite 1962. You can see a “live” Grad Nite 62’ dance photo over at Daveland’s blog (link) and my parents at Grad Nite 62’ here on my blog (link).

There are a lot of great photos in this article; some are pretty bright for night time!



Here’s a nice four page article on our cover girl Ann Margret.

Wow, Ann is looking pretty sultry here. I always wondered, did Viva Las Vegas help her acting career or kill it?

Cover guy Bobby Rydell gets a small side note in this “Fad’s and Fancies” page.

Now for some classic vintage advertisements. “Brush 3 ways clean the Colgate Way!”

Mary Tyler Moore? Jackie Kennedy? Nope, just fashions by Betty Barclay.

I guess the teens targeted in this magazine were girls! This adds a whole new means to “go for the ring”.

Life as a teen in the early 60’s was about choices, so you decide which one is best for you.

Lastly, how about some Big Daddy comics? Either this isn’t funny or I just don’t get it, probably both.

Gee, lookit all those clean cut kids! I like the "Fads and Fancies" pages... why does Janet Lennon get singled out among the Lennon Sisters?
Ann Margret, hubba hubba!
This magazine was originally sent to a young lady living on Rural Route 2 in Glenford Ohio, a town of less than 200. I suppose that it was something of a lifeline.
Remember when Ann Margrock guest stared on the Flinstones? Well, I guess this is what she looked like in her AD persona.
Did Disneyland ever have a brass ring catch? I don't think so, but I wouldn't trust my memory on this one.
My grampa still wears his hair like Bobby Rydell hahahaha :)
The woman in the Betty Barclay ad is model Helaine Carlin.
