Wanna Peek into the Disneyland Scrapbook?

Tuesday April 5, 2005
As the Happiest Celebration on Earth, in honor of Disneyland's 50th anniversary, gets set to unfold, let's open up the scrapbook and take a peek back at some old pictures of the park and the man who brought it to life. There are some wonderful chestnuts in this Disneyland photo gallery, including (then Vice-President) Richard Nixon and Walt Disney christening the Disneyland Monorail, Walt cavorting among the animals as the Jungle River Cruise takes shape, and Fess Parker, TV's "Davy Crockett," leading a construction tour down Main Street U.S.A.
