Can anyone tell me about the graphic on this Tomorrowland cap?

[KingStefan]

Someone got me this hat for a gift (I think maybe from cast connections), and I went bonkers over the graphic. They thought it was just a cool, geeky thing that I would like, but I recognized it as something more! But I don't have enough knowledge or specific resources to identify the overall origin of the graphic and each of the elements in it. Can y'all help me please?

I'm guessing it is related to a retro view or Tomorrowland at Disneyland, but I don't know for sure, or any details. Thanks for any help y'all can give!

Looks like a collage of images taken from various pieces of old Tomorrowland concept art.

As stated on another site describing the hat ..... as coming from DL Emporium....
The front of the cap contains many delightful, retro illustrations. Sketch-style imagery, including a Skyway gondola, the Clock of the World, Astro Orbiter ships, Autopia, the TWA Moonliner, the Man with a Jetpack, and a Rocket Jet surround the bright blue Tomorrowland “atomic” logo.

Thanks Weather_Lady and JIMINYCR. Those were both very helpful.

Mission to Mars, Astro Orbiter, Tomorrowland Skyway, Tomorrowland Speedway, and what looks to be a giant blender.

Going clockwise starting from 12:00, the images seem to be a Disneyland Astro Jet, A DL Skyway Bucket, the old Clock of the Future, more Astro Jets, a sketch of the Autopia, the Moonliner rocket, and an Astronaut. All Disneyland stuff, related to (but not exclusively) the original version of Tomorrowland that existed from 1955 to 1967 when the land was massively redone and several of these elements altered or removed.

And then of course the logo in the middle seems to be a throwback as well. Cool designs all around!

Throwback images from attractions in the original Tomorrowland at Disneyland, even includes the original land logo.

Ah yes the Tomorrowland that depicted 1986 in 1955...

Thanks all. And thanks El Gran. Giant blender! Good one. That made me laugh.

hanks to JIMINYCR, and later others, we know that the giant blender is the Tomorrowland World Clock, the original icon of Tomorrowland. https://www.yesterland.com/worldclock.html.

Altogether, this cap is a nice find, I think.

This hat is/was widely available at WDW, I got one about a year ago and wear it to the parks when we go. May still be available in Star Traders or the new TRON/SM shop. Could be emporium also on main street.
