50 years later I tore out the remaining three tickets and let me tell you it felt great! Too bad you can’t hear that distinct “Snap” sound, it’s intoxicating.
Awesome attraction list. The Monorail still just circles Tomorrowland, Main Street still has a Shooting Gallery (has anyone ever seen interior photos of the MS Shooting Gallery?) and Fantasyland has an Omnibus!
An unbelievable value.
Here’s the cover to the spring 1960 issue of Vacationland.
Swift’s tender-grown premium chicken dinners for $1.75!!!!!
Before C & H had a sack of sugar on the Main Street drinking fountain, Spreckles was the sugar king of Disneyland. Come back on Bonus Sunday for the entire issue.

Wait, Main Street had a shooting gallery?
Pics or it didn't happen.

Ha ha, JG, nobody took pictures of the shooting galleries! (Or almost nobody). It's funny, there have been shooting galleries at Disneyland for years, and even NOW you don't see pictures of them.
Wasn't the Main St. shooting gallery somewhere in the back section of the Penny Arcade? I think that's where I've seen it listed on the large DL wall maps. I would love to see a pic of it.
Main Street Shooting Gallery? I don't ever remember one. Perhaps they meant the shooting vending machines in the Penny Arcade. That's the only thing I can think of. Speaking of shooting galleries, does anyone remember the bear shooting machines in Frontierland? As I remember a little mechanical bear would go back and forth in a forest themed "box". It had a light sensor built in it and your gun "shot" a beam of light. If you hit the sensor target on the bear, the bear would switch direction of travel.
Just noticed that it takes a C coupon to play at the Main Street shooting gallery so they can't mean the vending machines.
