29yrswithaGApass Posted February 25, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 I'd love to know what happened to the state flags in this photo. It was taken in 1976 (the year they were added) and it seems that the flags were replaced with colorful whimsical flags. I wonder if this was done for some sort of event or if they gave up on the state flag idea early on. Doubt it because the state flags were back the following year.

29yrswithaGApass Posted November 17, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2014 I was really surprise to find the round eagle emblems at the park when pulling stuff together for the museum. These were really well constructed out of molded fiberglass and in great shape for something almost 40 years old. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
29yrswithaGApass Posted September 8, 2020 Author Report Share Posted September 8, 2020 Spotted something funny in the photo below. The lady in the lower left corner brought her Walt Disney World shopping bag to Great Adventure. I recognized it because I still have a couple from when my family went to WDW in the mid '70s. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GAcoaster Posted September 8, 2020 Report Share Posted September 8, 2020 We had the same one for YEARS in the bottom of our linen closet filled with bows and curling ribbon, next to all the rolls of wrapping paper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
29yrswithaGApass Posted July 15, 2021 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2021 I received a new image of the Avenue of the States area of the park taken in July 1976. Here is a general view and below that a zoomed-in version of building cutouts along the right side of the entrance area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
29yrswithaGApass Posted February 5, 2022 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2022 This would never work today. People are too busy looking at their phones while walking and I am sure several would take a flagpole to the face. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
