Disney Not So News

DISNEY NEWS INDEX PAGE

Welcome to etixland's latest find from The Vaults. To extend our archives on Disneyland of the 60s, I have a bit of fun with four vintage, original issues of the famed Disney News magazine, dating from 1968 to 1970, plus one issue of Vacationland magazine from Summer 1969.

I'll present the issues in chronological order as I have them, and will try to get subsequent issues online soon as I can to keep this new section rolling.

Avast, mateys! Park entertainment + WDW report Vacation ideas, Anaheim and beyond
Summer 1968 Spring 1969 Summer 1969
Disney's Summer of Love Walt Disney World, Phase One
Summer 1969 Summer 1970

No, I didn't repeat an issue by mistake: the Disney News and Vacationland magazines used the same cover photo for Summer 1969 -- in fact, they were pretty much mirror publications. But while their content was similar, Vacationland expanded into sights and parks outside The Berm to cover a wider spectrum of topics for readers -- I think you'll enjoy seeing the similarities and differences . . . when I get both those issues online, that is!

Meanwhile, enjoy highlights and some humorous commentary on the Summer 1968 issue, which you can access by taking the linked photo above or clicking Next.
