Kodak Moments...Then and Now

Welcome to the Gallery

PHP Gallery photo The Disney Gallery above Disneyland’s Pirates of the Caribbean is gone…So we’ve created our own gallery for you to enjoy. Here you’ll find snapshots of the original Magic Kingdom with Electric Mic & Kiltboy through the decades.

To Infinity and Beyond! PHP Gallery photoSteve riding the Flying Saucers in Tomorrowland.  This was his favorite attraction at the time. He ALWAYS went to this first!  His cousin Glen is pictured in the blue shirt in front of him.

The Flying saucers first opened in August of 1961.  Finally, in 1966, the Saucers disappeared, never to be seen again.

Young Brave meet'um Big Chief PHP Gallery photoMike’s Dad grew up near the Standing Rock Souix Reservation in Thunderhawk, South Dakota.  So a trip to Frontierland’s Indian Village was always part of the family’s Disneyland experience.  Mike's Grandma is also pictured, wearing a stunning polka-dot creation by J.C. Penney. Ahhh...The 60's.

The Indian Village was located where Critter Country is now, and was featured at Disneyland from 1955 to 1971.
