All of the pictures in this thread are great! It should be obvious that I love looking at all of these "nostalgic" shots!

Thanks for posting them and I hope there's more!

Thank you so much for posting these! I loved seeing all of the old pics. The next time I see my parents I will have to look through our old albums to see our Disneyland pictures.

Here are some pictures from one of my parents' photo albums. According to the date on the back of the photographs, they are from 1986.

Ahh looks like they developed them in 86' or something, the front queue sections there in Fantasyland were redone in 1983, and those are the old ones..along with the old subs that were miltary gray, i'd venture to guess those were taken in the early-mid 70's...cool pics thanks Jen!

This photo is so exciting to me since my Great-Grandfather's company did the scaffolding on the Matterhorn and the Castle. There is a small bit of my family in the park

at the rate the ticket prices are going up, in 50 years ticket prices will be over $150 for a day at disneyland.

Not sure if you folks have seen this. It's a fabulous video documenting a family who won a trip to Disneyland in 1956 - Enjoy!

I loved the comment about "mowing the boys' hair" and the scene where they all pass out from excitement.
