Bonus Sunday - Double Disney News

Today's Bonus Sunday consists of two "Disney News" magazines. This magazine was the official magazine for Magic Kingdom Club Members. Yes I've been promising a post series on the Magic Kingdom Club, it will come soon I promise.

These magazines are more "text" based than the colorful "Vacationland" magazines, but there is actually a ton of neat information in these. First from the Summer of 1966, lots of new things coming to Disneyland. A few great pics of Walt and lots of fun stuff.

Naturally, this is my favorite page from the 1966 Disney News. Date Nite ticket prices!!!!






From the Fall of 1978, this Disney News has much more color and still some neat information. Fun Mickey's fiftieth stuff too.

Without a doubt my favorite article in this issue, a teaser about Big Thunder Mountain Railroad! "It could only happen at Disneyland". I think this has become one of my favorite attractions at Disneyland, I underrated and under-rode it for many years, my loss.
