On July 15, 1955, the Los Angeles Examiner produced an insert that tried to explain what this new thing called Disneyland was all about. Since the piece was produced before the park even opened, the Imagineers used some of the beautiful concept artwork to illustrate the wonders of this new park. For the next few weeks, we will be looking at what a Disneyland is and why you should visit.
TOMORROWLAND
1955 becomes 1986 as you enter the new era - Tomorrowland where our hopes and dreams for the future become today's realities. Symbolizing the time transition is Tomorrowland's futuristic clock. At a glance, this elaborate chronometer tells you the exact minute and hour anywhere on the face of the planet Earth.
Dramatizing future outer space travel is TWA's moon rocket - poised for blast-off. In Tomorrowland you'll marvel at the astounding exhibits of advanced science, developments presented by many of America's leading industrial firms, all housed in buildings keynoted to futuristic architectural design.
Welcome aboard Trans World Airlines' Rocket to the Moon! In Tomorrowland's world of 1986 you'll zoom through space at speeds over 172 thousand miles an hour! Actually experience the "feel" of space travel - see Earth below and Heavens above as you pass space station Terra, coast around the Moon and return! An eight-hour flight in ten thrilling minutes - all without ever leaving the ground.
In Tomorrowland, aluminum spheres on 20 foot tripods accurately forecast future techniques in outdoor illumination.
Towering high above all else in Tomorrowland, the 72-foot TWA Moon Rocket symbolizes Trans World Airlines' interest in future air travel and planned scientific progress. Today, TWA serves 60 U.S. cities, and 21 world centers abroad.
Everyone from seven to seventy will thrill to a ride over the Richield (sic) Autopia at Disneyland. Located in Tomorrowland, the Autopia includes the half-mile modern freeway shown below. Large enough for adults, the Autopia cars are powered by gasoline engines fueled with New Richfield Ethyl. They are truly fun to drive, yet absolutely safe. Be sure also to see the exciting, free Richfield Show, "The World Beneath Us," near the Autopia. Here you'll see a new Walt Disney Studios film in Technicolor and CinemaScope, and the world's most unusual Diorama!
Before you set out for Disneyland, ask you Richfield dealer for the colorful, informative Official Disneyland Map. It shows you the easiest ways to reach Disneyland. It's Free - compliments of your local Richfield dealer.
