It was 20 years ago today...

April 10th 1988, America Sings sang its last song. I did a post back in February (link) showing a press pass and a grainy video of the attraction. I have since found a much nicer video on YouTube. I rode Splash Mountain on my last visit just to see all the animals from America Sings, ok, that last drop was a blast too!!!

This was filmed on the last day, April 10, 1988. Notice one of the geese is missing in the first two scenes (there are supposed to be four in each scene). I hear they “loaned” them out to Star Tours but never got them back! (YouTube Link – part 1) - (YouTube Link – part 2).






Here is the cover to the Summer 1974 Guide Book. Yes I posted this cover before, but check back this Sunday for the entire guide.





Some stock photo’s I cobbled together from the big souvenir books. They didn’t devote very much space in the books for America Sings, not even half a page







WOW – Check out this whole page photo from an early 80’s souvenir book! THIS is Disneyland…





Tomorrow? Rumor has it that “It’s Back" - Here’s a sneak preview:
