    Sorry to hear that you still have not been able to make it out here to enjoy our little park, you were so close this time.

    And another great article from you. I think this one rivals your list articles that I enjoy reading because I love finding hidden treasures like this book at antique stores or garage sales and am always on the lookout for something like this.

    The photo of the Matterhorn at night is also one of my favorites, especially with Mickey Mouse visible in the rear compartment of the Monorail!

    Disneyland isn't going anywhere. I'll get there sooner or later.

    It is a great treasure. Keep your eyes open for one. Thank you for the kind words and for reading.

    I'll have to check when I get home tonight, but I think I actually have this book, or one of its siblings. My first visit was in 1963 at the tender age of 6, and I'm sure that I have at least some of the guide books from the 60's. Most interesting - thanks, Chris!

    Well I love finding treasures like this so much that I actually already found it. I just happened to glance up at my bookshelf this morning and found this. Almost the exact same on the inside, but it is the book from 1969.
