Knott's Flyer Comparison - 1965/1966

Time for a vintage Knott’s Berry Farm post. Today let’s compare two flyer’s that I originally thought were identical but they are actually one & a half years apart and do have a few subtle differences.

The first flyer is dated January 1, 1965. “Never an Admission Charge” is that a poke at Disneyland?






The second flyer is dated June 1966, the front panel appears to be identical to the 1965 version.






The back panel of the 1965 version showing the Chicken Dinner and Steak House menus, oh boy am I getting hungry!






The 1966 version of the menu page is basically the same, but there are a couple of little changes, I’ll let you find them.






Here’s the big inside panel of the 1965 version. The rides and attractions sure have a haphazard look when arranged this way. I want to feed the seals; I’ll take two bags, buts what’s in those bags? Note the Overland Trail Ride, it’s about to disappear. By the way, that sounds like a great attraction that I know nothing about???






1966 has a few changes; most significant is the addition of Independence Hall. Does the hall occupy the former space of the Overland Trail Ride? A couple of the “children” ticket prices increase from 25¢ to 35¢.






From July 1969, here’s a nice color brochure on Knott’s Berry Farm’s Independence Hall.
