Finally!! After several years its here!! Late May this Bible will appear at the parks. While it doesn't show EVERYTHING, it does have a good historical overview of the parks poster art. But the best, is the concept art! You'll see the earliest visions of some of Disney's most famous attraction posters as well as poster that just didn't make it into production. Be sure to get this one for your collection!!</div>

</div><div style="text-align: center;">This past Wednesday, the Disneyland Hotel completed the new FRONTIER (land) Tower. In it's lobby is a nice 1/4"= 1' scale model of Big Thunder Mountain RR. Continuing the Frontierland theme right into the restrooms is ATTRACTION POSTER WALLPAPER!!!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">This isn't the first time I've seen attraction poster wallpaper however. Wally Boag's daughter's boyfriend showed me some pictures of a spare bathroom Wally Boag and he wallpapered with REAL 1950's/60's attraction posters! (yes--I cringed too!) They trimmed posters up and collaged them together creating what I though would be the only use of Disneyland attraction poster wallpaper --until a few days ago. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">If you started to cry at the thought of real attraction posters being cut up for a 1970's home-improvement project, then you probably don't want to hear this: The Disneyland staff shop used to take attraction posters for rides that were no longer existing and tear sections from them so that sawdust and scraps could be swept into the torn sections like a dust pan!!! Thank GOD Disneyland was thinking green and recycling back then!! What else do you do with stacks and stacks of unusable poster for Flying Saucers, Space Station X-1, Casa De Fritos, Carousel of Progress, Rocket to the Moon, Nature's Wonderland,Tahitian Terrace, Rainbow Caverns etc...........Well, you can do what the Disneyland paint shop did: use old attraction posters as paint drip cloths or masking off things. Yup. Is everyone cringing again?</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Well, one more attraction poster cringe: The Disney Attraction Poster Book by Disney Editions.........has had it's delivery date pushed to Spring of 2012!</div>MIKE COZARThttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03616421722228113410noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8822280898901542064.post-40930687932731450482011-05-07T02:54:00.000-07:002011-05-07T03:08:00.731-07:00DISNEYLAND'S NEW GENERATION III STAR TOURS POSTER DEBUTS!!!!This past week yet another NEW attraction poster for Disneyland went on display.

<div style="text-align: center;">This is Disneyland's second version of the Star Tours attraction poster. It uses artwork developed for Disneyland Paris & Tokyo Disneyland. It's amazing to know that this is a screened poster!------the layers ink and the craftsmanship used to create this poster is stunning, and I think Walt would have been proud. This was produced under the direction of WED/WDI graphic master, RUDY LORD. For you collectors.....there are a few variants of this --some without Disneyland screened on........and some with M&M (MARS CANDY) Sponsor --but no one has a version with Disneyland and Tomorrowland on it because none were produced!!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">Above is the raw art for Disneyland's first Star Tours poster of 1987. Tim Delaney of WDI painted the original and the final poster was lithographed (not screened) for use at the park. Delaney created this out of shear love of his work: You see there was NO money left in the budget for a attraction poster and Tim Delaney said he wasn't going to let Star Tours opening without it's own poster, so he painted it himself!!!! I bet Disneyland was grateful that he did since it appears on some of the earliest Star Tours merchandise.</div>MIKE COZARThttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03616421722228113410noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8822280898901542064.post-38270860791797865902011-03-29T15:02:00.000-07:002011-03-29T15:06:59.203-07:00WALT DISNEY WORLD MONORAIL POSTER #2 1978WALT DISNEY WORLD MONORAIL POSTER #2 1978<br />
<br />
While WED was laboriously working on new attraction posters during the mid 1970's , Walt Disney World's opening day posters were wearing out and suffering from the extreme temperature and weather changes. At this time Disney wasn't using Stuart Burroughs Print service (the vendor that screened most of the attraction posters of the 1950's 1960's) anymore mainly due to costs. WED now had a one-of-a-kind serigraph silk screening equipment set up. WED was so busy working on new highly detailed posters for Jungle Cruise and Disneyland/Walt Disney World Railroad they did not have the time or money to replace ALL of the early WDW posters with elaborate silk screen re-dos. The solution: paint new attraction posters and lithograph them until we have time to do new tyvek-paper silk screen versions. This leads us to the great WDW poster replacements of 1978!!!! Some of these 1978 re-dos include HAUNTED MANSION, GRAND PRIX RACEWAY, CRYSTAL PALACE, IT'S A SMALL WORLD, AMERICA THE BEAUTIFUL, TROPICAL SERENADE, SWISS FAMILY ISLE TREEHOUSE, 20,000 LEAGUES UNDER THE SEA, and......................<br />

Here's the Florida's ancestor next to the 1971 WDW counterpart. It's a mystery on the 1971 WDW posters as to why certain modification were made to showcase Florida only designs -----Like why does the 1971 Florida SKYWAY poster use the 1956 round Disneyland Skyway buckets?? These were already long out of use at Disneyland by 1971. And here on the WDW Monorail poster: why does the monorail exiting the Contemporary Resort Tower show a Disneyland Monorail while in the distance a correct White WDW Monorail heads towards the Magic Kingdom Monorail Station????? My speculation is both time and cost. Or were these just design flubs?MIKE COZARThttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03616421722228113410noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8822280898901542064.post-85103789354121565932011-02-03T17:18:00.000-08:002011-02-03T17:27:43.405-08:00RIDE THE RAILS IN REVERSE!!! Walt Disney World Railroad backwards attraction posterWhile Walt Disney World's Splash Mountain was under construction, railroad service around the Magic Kingdom came to a halt as the trains were unable to complete the circuit and pass through Frontierland. To accomadate guests, the Walt Disney World Railroad operated trains From Mickey's Starland to Main Street USA........and back. This limited point-to-point service had imagineers create a whole new poster to reflect the new route of the Walt Disney World Railroad!!<br />

JINGLE BELL JAMBOREE, Tokyo Disneyland attraction poster<br />
<br />
In 1984 Disneyland debuted a holiday overlay variation to the Country Bear Jamboree called, Country Bear Christmas. Walt Disney World followed shortly after. A concept poster was proposed for the American parks that used the original Country Bear Jamboree attraction poster with holiday details added ------ snow deposits on various parts of the poster, a wreath above the "Five Bear Rugs" portrait and some graphic changes to the lettering. This poster never went into production. However a smaller playbill size poster was created for the entrances of the Bear Band show featuring the Christmas show and another showcasing the Vacation Hoedown show. These are similar to attractions posters, but are not.<br />

Sadly at Disneyland, the original Country Bear Jamboree could no-longer be shown due to the fact that when the two new holiday/vacation shows were done with a new tape-playback and the 1972 show tapes could not be used on the new equipment.<br />
<br />
TOKYO DISNEYLAND was excited to add the additional Country Bear Shows, and changed the attraction's name from COUNTRY BEAR JAMBOREE to COUNTRY BEAR THEATER. This name changed introduced 3 new attraction posters to celebrate all three shows. The original 1983 Country Bear Jamboree attraction poster was the same artwork from Walt Disney World and Disneyland all done in an offset litho process. The NEW Country Bear Theater posters for Tokyo Disneyland were all silk screened!!<br />
<br />
The new posters included a detailed redo of the regular Bear band poster and two new seasonal show posters<br />

The JINGLE BELL JAMBOREE attraction poster is the ONLY Disney park Holiday poster ever done with the recent "BELIEVE IN HOLIDAY MAGIC" poster at Disneyland. No posters have ever been produced for "It's A Small World" or the "Haunted Mansion" holiday shows. Even a concept poster was developed for a Enchanted Tiki Room holiday show -an attraction that never materialized.<br />

And keep your eyes peeled for an amazing new attraction poster book due out in the spring of 2011!! </div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">This elaborate redo for the Haunted Mansion was done in the famous "Window Frame" style popularized by WED graphic artist Jim Michaelson. He was the "father" of the second generation attraction poster. The Haunted mansion's "sister" attraction..........PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN had a revised poster created in 1982. WED was able to justify the cost of the new Pirates poster as Walt Disney World had no poster for their attraction, and Tokyo Disneyland would also be able to use the same artwork. The production of the revised Haunted Mansion was "dead-in-the-water" as the production costs for the elaborate re-do was predicted to be too expensive and time consuming. Also the new Pirates poster was well received at Walt Disney World and Tokyo Disneyland, however the director of Disneyland's decorating department said "It looked like a cereal box" and few were every displayed at Disneyland and the original 1967 poster for pirates stayed on display for years.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

I've been neglecting my blog posts recently, but I've been up to my ears in plastic and foam working on a pretty elaborate model project that has finally been completed and installed! After a fairly long time of neglect, Disneyland has been finally getting it's long-awaiting new attraction posters. See my previous posts for others that have also made their debut in 2010. <br />

</div>I'm not sure what to think of the Indiana Jones posters-the artwork was actually commissioned by famed movie poster artist Drew Strutzen for a lithograph sold by the Disney Gallery around the time the attraction opened. Disneyland Merchandising did have one of the lithographs placed on display inside the entry tunnels for a short time, but the WDI graphics people always said they WANTED to do an attraction poster for the Indy attraction, but that was not done. I know Tokyo Disney Seas did have an actual attraction poster done for their version of the ride.<br />
<br />
I like when attraction posters all have a similar cohesive style. Even though the original posters from 1956 thru 1969 were done by several different artists and over many years, you can tell they are from a family of posters. Even the later additions of the 70's and 80's ...as well as the posters of the 90's at Disneyland Paris, Tokyo Disneyland and now even Hong Kong all fit that Disney attraction poster look. They new series, while some fit perfectly, others seem to be disjointed or use artwork that seems more like a merchandise Mug design. Some are done old style without "Disneyland" on the poster, others have "Disneyland" and some have "Disneyland Park". The consistency of this posters are maintained at all the other parks, except Disneyland. But I am very glad we are getting new posters at all to carry on this entrance tradition.<br />

Just before the "Lincoln-Journey To Gettysburg" show, a blank version of this 1975 poster was still on display in the Waly Disney Story/Lincoln holding pen. I calculate that "Great Moments With Mr. Lincoln" probably features the most poster variations of any attraction. After that would be "Country Bear Jamboree".....Third probably the Disneyland ALWEG Monorail......ok while I'm at it: fourth would be Enchanted Tiki Room. If you include other parks; It's a Small World has had the second most poster styles and variations. All these will be discussed in future posts.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

All the new posters are being printing in the original 1956-1972 36" x 54" size. This size poster was only used by Disneyland. After park closing on April 15Th, 2010 three additional new posters were installed to great Disneyland guests on the morning of April 16Th, 2010 (Jason: is that specific enough for the compendium??) <br />

The first studies for Tokyo Disneyland began back in 1974 under the project "ORIENTAL DISNEYLAND". In fact when the park was being developed, the land it would eventually sit upon was still being packed from reclaimed land. The land was designated by the Japanese government for recreational purposes only for citizens of Tokyo and surrounded communities. Tokyo Disneyland went thru many concepts and attraction assortments including Matterhorn Mountain, Storybook Land, The Western River Expedition, America Sings and even If You Had Wings. The Oriental Land Company who licensed Tokyo Disneyland from The Walt Disney Company, wanted a unique park-one that was Japanese, yet it had to be a very American "Disneyland" experience. Tokyo Disneyland at it's opening was mostly a composite of attractions directly lifted from Disneyland and Walt Disney World. One detail the Oriental Land Company developers considered an important visual aspect of a Disney theme park experience was the Disney ATTRACTION POSTER!! They requested that their park have it's very own set of these posters. The WED graphics team went to work to develop a set of 24 TOKYO DISNEYLAND attraction posters for the park's opening this day, 27 years ago.<br />
<br />
In actuality, only 23 were completed.......a poster for PRIMEVAL WORLD (seen from the trains of the Western River Railroad) was never produced. Over time I will discuss the many posters done for Tokyo Disneyland, but today, on the "KINGDOM OF FAMILY DREAMS AND MAGIC's" birthday, I'll show the posters for the attractions that were unique to TOKYO DISNEYLAND on APRIL 15, 1983.<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">this attraction poster reflects the Victorian style exposition atmosphere of Tokyo Disneyland's glass covered Main Street.

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">This is probably the shortest lived Disney attraction ever--yes, shorter than Rocket Rods. Open from April 15Th, 1983 to September 16, 1984. It was replaced by MAGIC JOURNEYS in 1985. The Eternal Seas was a 200 degree film produced especially as a cultural attraction for Tokyo Disneyland. It explored the importance of the relationship of the Japanese and the sea. The Japanese however deal with the sea in everyday life--it's always around them, and the show was not very popular, and quietly closed it's doors.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Meet The World was a favorite of the Oriental Land Company--it was originally designed--and built for EPCOT CENTER'S JAPAN PAVILION, however it opened at Tokyo Disneyland first to meet cultural requirements for the new Japanese park. WED always planed to build another MEET THE WORLD for EPCOT CENTER however this was sadly never to be. The attraction was a Carousel Theater show, but unlike America Sings or the Carousel of Progress, the theater seats were in the center and the stages were on the outer-ring. With each rotation of the theater, guests heard the Sherman Brother's catchy song "We Meet The World With Love". The attraction at the time was one of the most technically advanced shows ever created by Disney. It featured two Japanese kids who explore the history of Japan with the help of a magical crane. Meet The World closed it's doors early 2009.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Another favorite of the Oriental Land Company was the famous Mickey Mouse Revue. Built for Walt Disney World's opening in 1971, this attraction was one the Japanese insisted on having for their park --the CEO of the Oriental Land Co. felt the show encompassed the true feeling of Walt Disney. Walt Disney World was more than happy to let it go. It's operating costs exceeded the amount of guests attending the show. Bean counters looked at the number of guests inside the theater seats during each show. Rolly Crump of Imagineering was irritated: He tried to explain, the show does NOT have low attendance because it's unpopular!!!! It was a popular show, however during construction-the pre show space inside the attraction's building was made smaller to accommodate an additional merchandise location next to the Mickey Mouse Revue.......so from opening day, the pre show was never able to accommodate enough people to fill the larger theater inside! So during it's run at Walt Disney World, The Mickey Mouse Revue never had a full house----until it's cast member closing finale. So rather than build a duplicate of the show for Tokyo, Florida was willing to give their's up! A poster revision for WDW was being developed in the late 1970's, but was never completed. This poster was created especially for Tokyo Disneyland, but had elements of the proposed WDW poster redo concept.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">When Disney was researching and developing the first presentation for "ORIENTAL DISNEYLAND"....they closely studied the Japanese culture. Some things Disney noted and left out of the first master plans for what became Tokyo Disneyland included: NO popcorn, ice cream, or churro carts--Disney noted that Japanese do not eat while standing--it was considered rude and poor service.--Oriental Land company insisted that since the American Disney parks had outdoor vending, so too must Tokyo Disneyland. Disney also decided that Japanese ride trains all the time in their daily lives, and a train around the park would not be something Tokyo Disneyland guests would enjoy. The very first thing the Oriental Land Company brought attention to in the earliest WED presentations was that there was NO train around the park!! WED quickly fixed that, however, Disney ran into a problem with the Japanese Government--If the "Tokyo Disneyland Railroad" was to make more that one station stop, or it's length was a a certain length or longer, it would have to be operated as mass transportation and be under control of the Japanese government. Both Disney and Oriental Land Co. agreed that the attraction would need to be shortened, thus the creation of THE WESTERN RIVER RAILROAD!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Attraction poster fans will recognize this poster as being screened onto a generic-blank of the famous 1977 "Railroad" poster designed by Jim Michaelson. Oddly "THE" has been covered by the 'W" of Western River. The lettering could have been condensed to prevent that--it is unknown why it was done this way, as The Walt Disney World version manages to fit the "THE" in..... Tokyo Disneyland guests board one of four trains at the Adventureland Depot, travel around the Rivers of America-thru Primeval World and back to Adventureland. This poster has recently been replaced by a Hong Kong Disneyland style poster that is based on the original 1977 type.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiBcD0CIXK0XL5hW1p-RAzOC_4TFe5G-mHju3uQ6BC1sYI3JXLP3uEIFtIpOgFo7hTquBoFjEbxPCFIL2fqhP1cpyz6KscjoPyxC3p16F983oYReb-DvhomMSpfFseP2sDFLOMdQgg8KN-q/s1600/tokyo+posters+031.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiBcD0CIXK0XL5hW1p-RAzOC_4TFe5G-mHju3uQ6BC1sYI3JXLP3uEIFtIpOgFo7hTquBoFjEbxPCFIL2fqhP1cpyz6KscjoPyxC3p16F983oYReb-DvhomMSpfFseP2sDFLOMdQgg8KN-q/s320/tokyo+posters+031.jpg" wt="true" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">TDL#023 PINOCCHIO'S DARING JOURNEY</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Although this attraction was proposed for Disneyland in California as early as 1974, it actually opened first at Tokyo Disneyland...and this poster debuted there..hence it is featured in this post. Disneyland's opened in May of 1983. As I mentioned in a response in my last post--many of the posters that were ultimately used at Disneyland and Walt Disney World, owe their existence to Tokyo Disneyland. These attraction posters were very expensive to produce, so it was always difficult to justify new poster or re-dos of old ones without sponsors or large enough budgets. The WED graphics departments were finally able to make many newer posters for the US parks by designing the posters in such a way that they could have multiple park uses.......all paid for by the Oriental Land Company's generous financing! All of Disneyland's New Fantasyland attraction posters were really done for Tokyo Disneyland (but in heart the Imagineers were always thinking of DISNEYLAND USA!!)</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

Recently a portion of Disneyland's main gate and kennel area received a little remodeling as part of a multi-phase series of main gate refurbishments. Designed last year and slowly awaiting their time to shine is a whole new series of attraction posters for Disneyland. Some of these include posters featuring artwork developed for other parks and altered, while others are totally new. Some destined for display will include "Mr. Toad's Wild Ride" ( a never-before-done poster!) , "Tarzan's Tree house", "The Many Adventure's of Winnie The Pooh", "It's A Small World" and others. The first of some of these new ones went up on display last week. Take a look:<br />

<br />
WDW : Walt Disney World's poster is titled "JUNGLE CRUISE" (the first poster to use this nomenclature!)<br />
DL : Disneyland's poster is titled "JUNGLE RIVER"<br />
***if you look carefully you can see where one of the screen layers was left open for the <br />
"RIVER" wording, but "CRUISE" has been added on the WDW 1971 version--<br />
by the late 60's even Disneyland had stopped using the title Jungle River.<br />
<br />
WDW: The boat is named "Congo Connie"<br />
DL : Disneyland's poster "Congo Queen"<br />
<br />
WDW: poster size is 30" x45"<br />
DL: poster size is 36" x 54"<br />
<br />
small alterations yes, buy does differentiate the two as being from Anaheim or Florida!<br />
<br />
in 1975 many of the posters were starting to be completely revised. First was the Disneyland Railroad Bicentennial Special 1976.......the artwork for the regular version of this poster was also created at this time, but not screened until 1977. This is the very first of the NEW GENERATION ATTRACTION POSTERS, spearheaded by WED illustration wizard Jim Michaelson. The 1976 complete redo of the JUNGLE CRUISE was the first of these new "WINDOW BOX" style posters...............most feature themed "framing" around a center scene with elaborate decoration and trim around the boarders......... These posters were done with the intention of creating posters that could be used at both parks. As much as the simple crisp-graphics of the attraction posters of the 50's and 60's are so appealing to us today, by the mid 70's they very highly outdated and out-of-style looking compared to the graphic trends of the day.<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">not all the "WINDOW BOX" posters would be like this. "Eventually we used some tricks to keep some of the production costs down a bit" said Ken Kerr-a WED graphic designer----of on the Imagineers I interviewed years ago for my attraction poster book. "We did things like, show WDW's Space Mountain exterior, but show a Disneyland rocket sled".......Ken remarked regarding the SPACE MOUNTAIN attraction poster.

</div>The "grandaddy" of the the second generation attraction posters........The Disneyland Railroad Bicentennial Special" (1976) by Jim Michaelson. These were some of the most complicated posters EVER created........and not just among Disney theme parks.<br />

</div>This is a 1972 version of THE COUNTRY BEAR JAMBOREE shown in use at Disneyland under the Main Street train station. It is the first known attraction poster to feature BOTH Disneyland AND Walt Disney World's name on it at the same time. A forerunner to the second generation "Window box" posters.<br />
<br />
<br />
Ken Kerr mentioned they drafted up plans do redo most of the major attractions......20,000 LEAGUES UNDER THE SEA........THE MATTERHORN BOBSLEDS.........THE GOLDEN HORSESHOE......some<br />
we got going..............others we couldn't justify the costs at the time. .......................and with that I'll explain more about these "other" posters in another post.MIKE COZARThttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03616421722228113410noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8822280898901542064.post-22605690005973628592009-12-15T00:49:00.000-08:002009-12-15T03:08:49.872-08:00WALT DISNEY WORLD'S GENERATION ONE ATTRACTION POSTERS<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">It became clear during Disneyland's first year of operation that most visitors were very unclear as to what exactly these new "attractions" were all about. What's is an "AUTOPIA" or a "SPACE STATION X-1" ???<br />
</div>Disneyland first tried hand painted "show card" style signs and placed these about the park --some were themed slightly to the attraction, while others were very simple and modern ....... often oddly out-of-place. By 1956, it was decided.........just like a movie theater, develop a series of standardized posters to help showcase a preview of the shows, attractions, and even themed restaurants inside this new thing called Disneyland. These posters brought guests a color preview of the excitement that lay within Disneyland's mysterious berms.<br />
<br />
With the development of Walt Disney World in Florida, early marketing research showed WED Imagineers, that the Eastern Seaboard audience was also not very familiar as to what exactly is in a Disney park. And at this point the Disney attraction poster as a tool would be helpful for newly arriving guests. So as with the tradition of Disneyland's attraction posters, WED Imagineers created a set of 20 new posters for the new WALT DISNEY WORLD.<br />
<br />
Almost all the posters for Walt Disney World used existing Disneyland poster artwork with some modifications. Walt Disney World only attractions also got their own new poster artwork.......however done with 4 color lithography printing rather that the silk screened as the others.<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">some things to note about Walt Disney World's 1971 first poster series is that non of them feature the Walt Disney World logo logo on them --this would not begin to happen until the attraction post re-visions in 1975.<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> 1971-(30"x45") 4 color lithography, edition size(unknown)<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> newly created artwork that has been painted, This version of<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> this poster is similar to the later versions used at Disneyland and Walt Disney World, however<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> the "carved" frame surrounding The Five Bear Rugs was more elaborate and the attraction's title appears <br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> below the bears band portrait. "Frontierland" is also painted in to appear "carved in wood". The original <br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> artwork was altered in 1972 for Disneyland's Bear Country - covering a scalloped fan carving on<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> top to include a banner for the relocated attraction title "Country Bear Jamboree". Bellow, the original<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> title is painted out, and now reads "The Wildest Show in the Wilderness" . The "Frontierland" carved <br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> letters were also painted over to allow graphic designers to add "Bear Country" of "Frontierland" -- <br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> and later "Westernland" to the final poster depending on which park it was going to. The first<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> lithographed posters will feature the WDW "D" with Mickey Globe ears in lower right corner. (this <br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> poster would be revised in 1972 and again in 1978)<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">10) THE HALL OF PRESIDENTS -Liberty Square<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> 1971-(30"x45") 4 color lithography, edition size (unknown)<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> like the Bear Country Jamboree, this new WDW only poster features painted artwork and not <br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> silk screened, Also features the Walt Disney World 'D" with globe ears in lower corner<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> (this poster would be revised in 1978)<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">11) HAUNTED MANSION -Liberty Square<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> 1971-(30"x45") silk screened, edition size (200)<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> uses DL's artwork, but a WDW mansion has been added along with a dead "oak tree" and a cemetery<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> (this poster would be revised in 1978)<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">12) MICKEY MOUSE MUSICAL REVUE <br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> 1971-(30"x45") 4 color lithography, edition size (unknown)<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> Poster does not feature a "land" designation. Also features the WDW "D" with globe. I am not aware<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> if this poster was included in the 1978 set of revisions. A new poster was created in 1983 for Tokyo<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> Disneyland --the park where the Mickey Mouse Revue was relocated to.<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> *******Please contact me if you have an image of this poster "in action" at WDW with<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> Walt Disney World printed on the poster or any changes from the first 1971<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> edition.<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">13) 20,000 LEAGUES UNDER THE SEA -Fantasyland<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> 1971-(30"x45") silk screened, edition size (200)<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> poster uses the DL Submarine Voyage layout, but has the Nemo style sub. This poster was slated to be<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> redone by Jim Michaelson--the created of the 1976 Jungle Cruise, 1977 Disneyland RR --known for<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> his elaborate "window style" attraction posters....the elaborate redo posters were done for attractions<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> that could be used at both parks or if a sponsor was helping fund it. The planned Jim Michaelson posters<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> for MATTERHORN BOBSLEDS and 20,000 LEAGUES were never completed as the were only <br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> "one-off" attractions.<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">14) IT'S A SMALL WORLD -Fantasyland<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> 1971-(30"x45") 4 color lithography, edition size (unknown)<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> for whatever reason, the first Small World poster did not use the exact DL art nor was it silk screened. <br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> Imagineer Paul Hartley who created the first Small World poster for the Anaheim park did a new design<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> (this poster was revised in 1978)<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">15) DUMBO-MAD TEA PARTY-CAROUSEL -Fantasyland<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> 1971-(30"x45") silk screened, edition size (200)<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> uses the same DL 1956 artwork of the same title, however artwork has been revised to reflect the <br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> elaborate pageantry tent to Florida's CINDERELLA'S GOLDEN CAROUSEL. <br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">16) PETER PAN -Snow White-Dumbo-Mr. Toad -Fantasyland<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> 1971-(30"x45") silk screened, edition size (200)<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> Like it's Disneyland predecessor, this post also advertises it's fellow Fanstasyland dark rides--and again<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> Dumbo is mentioned. For the WDW, a bold green banner is added to help emphasises the other<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> attractions. <br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">17) GRAN PRIX RACEWAY -Tomorrowland <br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> 1971-(30"x45") silk screened, edition size (200) SPONSOR: Goodyear<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> looker very "50's" this poster borrows it;s look from Disneyland's 1956 AUTOPIA<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> poster. One noticeable change is that the cars noses have been changed to depict the<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> Mark SEVEN cars that debuted in 1968. And true to it's international race theme, <br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> racing stripes, numbers and flames have been added two of the poster's cars. <br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> (this poster was revised in 1978 and renamed "Grand Prix Raceway")<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">18) AMERICA THE BEAUTIFUL -Tomorrowland<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> 1971-(30"x45") silk screened, edition size (200) SPONSOR: Monsanto<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> Identical artwork as Disneyland's 1967 version of the poster, however the lettering on<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> the red and white stripes are lettered opposite as the Disneyland forerunner. This poster<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> was completely updated in 1975 for the special Bicentennial edition of America The Beautiful-shown <br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> in this blogs title screen.<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> I'm wondering, did Disneyland also uses this special Bicentennial poster??? If you have any photo's of <br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> this poster at Disneyland or WDW, please contact me.<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">19) SKYWAY -Tomorrowland<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> 1971-(30"x45") silk screened, edition size(200)<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> This poster uses very outdated images for 1971. The artwork is that of the 1956 Skyway poster<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> --that two was outdated when it made it's 50's debut as it shows a canceled "AIRBOATS" attraction<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> down below. By 1971, the double-seat round SKYWAY cabins and ground level ASTROJETS were<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> long gone images having been replaced or removed by 1966. My question is why did WED designers<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> make alterations to most of the posters that shared DL prototypes like Gran Prix, 20,000 leagues, etc....<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> but left this poster almost unchanged. The only noticeable difference: the tag line "Soar high above the <br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> Magic Kingdom"<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">20) FLIGHT TO THE MOON -Tomorrowland<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> 1971- Silk screened, edition size (200)<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> This opening year attraction only operated for 4 years before becoming Mission To Mars. The poster<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">These 1971 WALT DISNEY WORLD attraction posters seem oddly dated looking for 1971, but for budget reasons these posters had to be kept simple if they were to be ready for the grand opening in October 1971.<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">These first silk screened posters were easy to get done quickly as only small modifications needed to be made. More importantly, using the existing colors from the Disneyland versions of these posters would help save a good deal of money in poster printing and development. The early Walt Disney World posters were all screened by S.H. BURROWS COMPANY of Los Angeles --the same company that printed the first Disneyland attraction posters!!<br />

<br />
This opening year attraction poster for The Vacation Kingdom, used almost<br />
<br />
identical artwork for Disneyland's 1956 AUTOPIA poster. <br />
<br />
Oddly already outdated looking for even the early 70's, some alterations<br />
<br />
have been made to the car, to refelct the Mark Seven Autopia type car<br />
<br />
used by 1971 (and still today!) even racing numbers and flames have been<br />
<br />
added to reflect Florida's version of this attraction. In 1978 a new "Grand Prix<br />
<br />
Raceway" poster designed by Richard Hebner, replace the 50's style "Gran" Prix<br />
<br />
poster. The newer one clearly is inspired by the motion picture poster "Grand Prix" <br />
<br />
staring James Garner. (I'll post an image of the 1978 version on a later post) <br />
<br />
Ironically Goodyear helped finace the motion picture and was also the sponsor<br />
<br />
of this attraction.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
It makes me wonder why a newer attraction poster wasn't produced for<br />
<br />
Disneyland during this time to show the newer styled car shown here.<br />
<br />
Even up untill the early 90's original styled 1956 Autopia posters were <br />
<br />
were still on display at the Anaheim park --showcasing a car that had not<br />
<br />
been in use 4 decades!MIKE COZARThttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03616421722228113410noreply@blogger.com1
