Disneyland is just 6 months away from opening and the park is still looking very skeletal. No paving and just the framework for the buildings. Here is a close up on just Disneyland, note I have circled the Dominguez house.
Caption on photo reads: 1/13/55-DISNEYLAND and the surrounding territory with snow-capped Mt. Baldy in the background. To the left of the bottom half of DISNEYLAND is the thirty acre plot on which the $5,000,000 DISNEYLAND Motor Hotel will be built.
A Main Street view of the Wurlitzer shop. This is where the Disney Showcase is now, which is a retail store but in the 1970s was the place to look at models and artwork for coming attractions. I am willing to bet that many readers of this blog started their fascination with Disneyland and the Imagineers by visiting this shop. This was also the home to Dee Fisher who released a record album titled Echos of Disneyland. The album was organ interpretations of classic Disney songs and sounds very funeral like.
