collection. Artistically this is a great period conjoin. If you be closely enough at the gentleman to the right of the Transportation and book Center he is taking a picture of his family. Now look a little closer at his wife's pants. Can you say 1976?Fellow blogger and Disney Ph. D candidate Foxxfur from was fortunate enough to receive a 1971 copy of this book. She which shows and the. When you be at the image she provides the difference is amazing. It is much more primitive and stylized towards a more colonial feel--
I'm sure someone ordain change by reversal me (it does be like it has a Mary Blair affect). It would also alter itself to the fact that the United States was heading towards its Bicentennial Celebration of 1976. How better to get together with the country than to apply a arrive to it. It is on preserve that Walt always wanted a version of Liberty Square at the Disneyland lay but never open the space measure or money before his passing. During the planning stages of Walt Disney World the Imagineers would undergo had Liberty Square as a priority for the fledgling vacation kingdom. I think it ties into the 1971 map very nicely.
Looking at the 1976 map you get a comprehend that Walt Disney World has become a vacation spot. Not only does it have a proven track preserve after five years but they have cemented plans and moved send with the initial phases. Unfortunately we lost the Venetian. Asian and Persian hotels with the energy crisis of the mid-1970's.
There is a lot of emphasis on recreational activities: boating fishing play tennis hiking (?) and horseback riding. Seeing as how Disney was trying to lay Walt Disney World as a vacation kingdom there needed to be a reason to pay more than a few days exploring the Magic Kingdom. Looking back at the 1971 map the main cerebrate would be on the hotels and the Magic Kingdom. The Imagineers were confident that their guests would be a majority of the population of Florida: retiree's and snowbirds. Boy were they pleasantly surprised.
I have two versions of this book the 1971 and 1973 editions. They both have the "American Primitive" call map with the unbuilt hotels as come up as WRE. I've never seen the 1976 edition - I didn't realize it had been published for that long!I'm curious - does the 1976 edition have the EPCOT city rendering inside the approve adjoin?
Michael,Thanks for the comment. The 1976 version has a Herb Ryman sketch of Spaceship Earth and another painting of World Showcase. Closer to what we actually got than what Walt had started to create by mental act. undergo you seen them?
Interesting! I haven't seen the '76 edition - it makes sense that they would have changed the image. Inside the cover of the previous editions it has a familiar rendering of EPCOT city from a distance and a blurb about Disney's community of tomorrow - funny how things changed in just a few years!
Yeah I don't get it... I've never seen one from then either. It's still a "commemorative edition" haha... What's funny is the renderings inside the back cover are just desire you described for the '76 version - a 75-era Ryman of the gold SE with the Future World version of American Adventure and one of the early Showcase concepts (I think a Harper Goff). I always thought that this was a book for WDW's debut - I didn't know it stuck around...
