The Barstow Family’s “Disneyland Dream” (1956)
April 11th, 2008This 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!

I can stills remember the ticket books, and the Matterhorn was an “E” ticket. I forgot what a ticket cost back then, but now it’s close to $80 I think…
