I think there may be some folks out there that have other things they have and may be willing to share. If you have something like that, and wish to scan it in, I can add it to the collection I have. We can start to amass a library of older Disneyland documents that I don't think is around on the web. Yesterland is great for photos, but doesn't really have stuff like this. If anyone is interested, email me at jonvn@nadelberg.com and we can discuss it further. We can set up your pages in any manner you see fit. I think this would be a nice website to set up for Disney fans here on the web. Thanks.

One MK guide book in particular has full descriptions for all the attractions, shops, and food locations...it gives a great look at the diversity available pre-90s. I believe I can scan stuff at my sister's house.
Originally Posted By Sport Goofy I have a box of old brochures and stuff from WDW in the late 70s/early 80s. Of course, it's all packed up and sitting in the long term storage unit with the rest of my stuff, so it won't be seeing a scanner anytime soon.
Originally Posted By jonvn Sure! WDW stuff is great too. I have the old Epcot brochure sent out to everyone in the Magic Kingdom club filled with artist concepts about epcot. Um, somewhere. It is akin to what my 1955 guide book is, except it is for epcot instead of Disneyland. If you can scan them in, I can put them online. And, yes, that pamphlet is cool....Not much you can say about Buzz Lightyear, is there.

It's hard to describe, but you spin the cardboard wheel and different information would show up in the viewing windows of the brochure. Certainly a blast from the past. I hope it survives it's stint in long term storage.

Anyone remember what a General Admission ticket cost in 1970? [seems like it was around $1.00]
