Okay, you made me curious, so I did a little quick searching. Seems the remains of the themepark that this postcard is from, Storytown U.S.A. still lives in the bowels of the megacorporate 6 Flags Great Escape: http://www.sixflags.com/parks/greatescape/ParkPress/article_history.html But once upon a time, it looks like it was quite the Route 66-style homemade attraction. Great postcard pics here: http://theimaginaryworld.com/st.html (dig the big blue Tiki in the center of the bottom row! There's a brochure for the place on Ebay right now: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=736429357 And I also found this great little moonshine jug from the park: http://pages.tias.com/7815/PictPage/1920903262.html Thanks for the thread. Fun to research! |
