Discover the story of Disneyland, Walt Disneys visionary theme park in Anaheim, California. This bountiful visual history includes stunning color photographs, concept drawings, as well as ephemera from the historical collections of the Walt Disney Company and the golden age of photojournalism, to trace the parks development and immersive world of magic and wonder, from Main Street, U.S.A. to Tomorrowland.
Walt Disney dreamed for decades about opening the ultimate entertainment venue, but it wasnt until the early 1950s that his handpicked team began to bring his vision to life. Together, artists, architects, and engineers transformed a dusty tract of orange groves about an hour south of Los Angeles into one of the worlds most beloved destinations.
Today, there are Disney resorts from Paris to Shanghai, but the original Disneyland in Anaheim, California, which has been visited by more than 800 million people to-date, remains one of Americas most popular attractions. From the day it opened on July 17, 1955, Disneyland brought history and fairy tales to life, the future into the present, and exciting cultures and galaxies unknown to our imaginations.
This bountiful visual history draws on Disneys vast historical collections, private archives, and the golden age of photojournalism to provide unique access to the concept, development, launch, and enjoyment of this sun-drenched oasis of fun and fantasy. Disneyland documents Walts earliest inspirations and ideas; the parks extraordinary feats of design and engineering; its grand opening; each of its immersive lands from Main Street, U.S.A., to Tomorrowland; and the parks evolution through the six decades since it opened. It is a treasure trove of original Disney documentation and expertise, with award-winning writer Chris Nichols drawing on his extensive knowledge of both Disneyland and Southern California history to reveal the fascinating tale of the happiest place on Earth.
