The Barstow Family’s “Disneyland Dream” (1956)
Share April 11, 2008 | Zen Musings
This is a wonderful homemade video documentary of the Barstow Family’s dream trip to Disneyland in 1956, won by entering a nationwide Scotch Tape contest. Ah, the good ‘ol days! Reminds me of my childhood, watching homemade movies with the family’s 8mm film projector!
