Back in
1957 the
Los Angeles Times had a special offer for fans of Disneyland. Get 2 New Readers for
The Times and get a free “
Los Angeles Times Guest Book” to Disneyland. Convince two of your friends into a three month subscription of
The Times (at $2.25 per month) and you get admission to Disneyland, a selection of 15 exciting “
rides” and a free meal at Casa de Fritos! This first advertisement is from
February 24, 1957 and it’s HUGE at 22 inches high – have you seen
The Times lately, its not so big anymore.
This advertisement is just as tall but a third less wide and its from
January 31, 1957. Basically they same advertisement but this one talks about a “
Extra Bonus Offer” – a night stay at the new Disneyland Hotel!
You can probably get these old ads in .pdf or .jpg, but the old paper is a lot more fun!
Does anyone happen to have one of those L.A. Times Guest books???
