Today we've got a fun little Disneyland card/photo/flyer thing from the Summer of 1972.

Oh man, I miss BOTH of these attractions in a really bad way...

Disneyland Info - 1983

Let's party like its 1983! Anaheim residents, "It's Your Time" - time for a special deal at Disneyland.

More facts than you can shack a stick at! Hey, a Magic Kingdom Club Annual Passport for $55?? According to Disneyland' own brochure from 1984 (link), 1984 was the "first time ever" for the annual passports (at $65), what gives? I think TokyoMagic has one of these 1983 Annual passes, maybe he will share it with us.

or you time travelers out there.

Sundancer Magazine - May 1976

Welcome to Magazine Monday. Looking towards the bottom of the stack today we find "Sundancer" magazine from May 1976. This appears to an "in-flight magazine" from Hughes-AirWest (a great tribute website can be found here - link). Los Angeles artist Robert Krogle does his "first" illustration for the cover, does anyone else think it looks a lot like this (link)?

A fairly straight forward account of Southern California's "things to do" circa 1976. Who would have thought these were "simpler times".

I was going to look up the artist on this Kodak advertisement to see if he also did Playboy cartoons, but, well, I really don't have too. I don't recognize his name, but I most certainly recognize his work! Anyone else with me on this?

Even though O.J. is trying to rent us a Pinto, I bet he's much rather be doing that than what's he is currently doing.

I'll take the LTD for $14 per day!

Pretty Jag... To bad you probably needed a personal mechanic just to keep it running!

That's one odd looking wireless phone, it kind of looks fake, but for $400 it better be real.

I wanted one of these calculator pens so bad, Bond, James Bond.

Neat article about NBC's and other disappearing logos.

This magazine must have been printed in an alternate timeline... In our timeline this Hotel/Casino is of course "Biffs"

Back when the Golden Nugget was a Legendary Saloon!

Great 80's hair Debby! But I'll admit I like your 70's hair better (link).

AT&T Advertisement - August 1967

When people say they don't miss the Mary Blair Mural's because the murals "didn't really have anything to with Tomorrow" they really should read this August 1967 AT&T advertisement. Mary was "interpreting the promise of world wide communications in a colorful tile mosaic of a children's orchestra sending music to friends in other nations".. She predicted iTunes and YouTube four decades in advance!
