1984 WDW Postcard

[SpaceMountain75]

My mom found her old postcard photobook from the Vacation Kingdom of the World in '84, so I thought people here would enjoy some of the pictures!

Those hub trees! Ah!

I hope you guys have as much fun looking at these as I did!

Awesome, thanks!

I've been meaning to scan some stuff from my mom's scrapbooks from her early 70s trips with her friends, then in 76 for my parents' honeymoon. Some really cool stuff.

What's a "post ... card"? Why didn't people back then just instagram it?

I have a question for you specifically about picture # 3 above. The curves of the moat as compared to the current configuration suggests that the picture was taken from the bridge from the hub into Adventureland before the north "spur" bridge into Liberty Square was built.

So when did that spur get built? After 1984 evidently.

Thanks... nice to see scenes of Disney in the past.

The bridge between the back of the Christmas store to the Adland / Crytsal Palace bridge area? That was installed July - September 2000.
