Old pictures of WDW

[Bug715]

Here are the only ones I have. Darn my parents for not having pictures from when they went as kids. I may have to see if grandma has any...

These aren't as old as some of the others but they're from the early 90s. sorry my mom and I are in them but I scanned them for a mother's day project.

I just love the wierd looking donald and lack of people and blue strollers.

I guess there was a time before the Partners statue

Hi!

Old pics??? Well!

I first visited MK in Jan 1973, on leave from boot camp, USN RTC Orlando, and had a Kodak Pocket Instamatic! Took a couple of rolls of film and last year or so scanned them all in and put together a PDF...

Anyone who would like a copy can write me directly at eJud2001 @ Yahoo.com (omit spaces)

I recently did a "re-shoot" of all those shots, or rather, from the same positions- some things have changed... but haven't put that together yet; something for the future.

Bug715 I love the one with the Castle. Those trees add a nice touch.

I've got a couple old photos on my Disney gallery site.

Donald Duck's 50th Birthday Parade 1984 - I recently found photos that my mom took on our first ever trip to WDW back in 1984. Donald Duck turned 50 and they threw a parade for him. Twenty years later, he's celebrating his 70th birthday (sadly without a parade) and I dusted the photos off, scanned them, cleaned them up and put them together on a small page for your viewing enjoyment.


Magic Kingdom - Walt Disney World 1972 - My Love first went to WDW in August of 1972 at the ripe old age of 2 1/2. We went through his family photo albums, found some pictures, scanned them, cleaned them up and put them together so you can peek at the park the year after it opened!


Enjoy!

Wow I never got to see Tomorrowland like that, it looks so much better then than it does now. I don't understand why those fake rocks are even there now?! But I love the clean, modern look of the old Tomorrowland with the waterfalls! Great pictures, thanks for sharing!

Wow! These are really cool pics!!!

I've never seen Tomorrowland like that either as someone else said...

Thanks for sharing!

That's when Tomorrowland was really Tomorrowland.

This is true

Now is the Time, RCA, Eastern, American the Beautiful, Journeys and Magic Carpet, ORAC-1 (or even Wagner), a Saturn IV and Mr Johnson.... I guess you had to be a certain age huh?

Kristilovesdw - you`d have hated the waterfalls. Yep, they looked good but one thing not thought about when designed was the wind. The hub bridge was more like a car wash in anything but the stillest of days; hence they were deactivated.

I guess that would be a job well done to my dad. It is good framing isn't it?

I remember that. I LOVE the pose!

I'm guessing that was mom's idea. I think its really cute but I like the partners statue better.

Wondering if anyone would post old pictures, items etc. of WDW. I love looking at old pictures of WDW.

I've got two small galleries from the late 80s,

Here (Epcot), and here (MK)

That looks SO nice. I hate how the castle forecourt looks now. It's so bare. But I guess Wishes is the priority.

Thanks again everyone for sharing these. I am so loving these pics. :sohappy:
