It's very rare to see pictures of MK's Tomorrowland before Space Mountian came to town.Adamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17452221922813566424noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34647587.post-59878615019075262712017-01-06T22:03:07.451-05:002017-01-06T22:03:07.451-05:00Very cool old photo!

The Frontierland of 1972 represents a similar dynamic--that's why I absolutely love getting a hold of photos such as this one.<br /><br />The irregular posting is unfortunately my reality and has been for quite some time. I appreciate the fact that you do check every now and then. Thanks again for the kind words.Jeffrey Pepperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00990997892044489714noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34647587.post-42094277842128115112015-08-31T11:09:40.871-04:002015-08-31T11:09:40.871-04:00Wow!

As one who had visited the Magic Kingdom by that time (my first visit was in '72, when I was four years-old), I am amazed I was there when it looked thus. Now, it bears little resemblance to Tomorrowland in my mind's eye; if you had told me this was Tokyo Disneyland I might be inclined to believe it, were it not for the Contemporary in the background. I would be interested in a follow-up report if you learn the purpose of the "circus tent."<br /><br />And I just discovered you have been posting again of late -- I really hope this continues, as this has long been one of my favorite blogs.SSBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14916404855777091360noreply@blogger.com
