Hello everyone,
I'm so pleased to report that our very first book is done
and ready to purchase now.
Called Anaheim Vacationland, this 244 page full color
quality book covers the history of the Disneyland area
from 1955 to today.
I have been working on this project since 2001, collection
rare images, stories and interviews about all the crazy
motels, neon signs, liquor stores, and such that
encircle Disneyland now and in the 60's.
The book is a high quality book that measures 8.5inches
x 11 inches.
Inside the book are hundreds of rare images of Tiki Motels,
Western Motels, Space Age Motels and more! With a forward
by Disney Legend Bob Gurr, and an introduction by Disney
Hotel author Don Ballard! Plus Disney Legend Marty Sklar,
and Buzz Price (the man who picked the location for
Disneyland, and even Roy Disney himself.
The book describes my life growing up in the 80's in the
motels around Disneyland, and I always wondered what it
was like before.... The book then goes back to the birth
of Anaheim, through the opening day of Disneyland and then
becomes a pictorial scrap book of old motels, ads, and more!
Plus a look at the other theme parks around Disneyland like
Japanese Deer Park, Magic Mountain, Wide World of Wax,
Movieland, Movie World, Lion Country Safari and more!
The book is 244 pages of all color images, interviews,
stories and more from the history of Disneyland and
Anaheim.
The first edition is a very limited printing, and much
like the Nickle tour book, this will go fast.
The book's web site now has sample pages, more info
about the book and you can even buy the book right now!
All proceeds from the book will go to help the Anaheim
Motel families.

history with you.
