Disneyland's King Arthur's Carrousel History

Walt Disney’s dreams for Disneyland began when he watched his daughters ride on the carrousel in Griffith Park. So it came as no surprise that when Walt began his plans for Disneyland, he wanted a carrousel in his park.

In 1954, Disney scouts located a vintage carrousel in Toronto, Canada. The carrousel was dismantled and shipped to California where skilled artisans carefully restored it

At Walt’s request, workers removed giraffes, deer, and other animals and replaced them with hard-carved horses so that every Guest could ride aboard a galloping steed. The horses were then painted tan, brown, gray or brownish red and placed beneath a tournament-style canopy.

One thing that I enjoy doing on slow days at work is perusing through pictures of the Disney Parks by others who share the same passion I have for Disneyland. This picture is one of Walt and Mickey, saying bye to those leaving while greeting all others coming into the park simultaneously.

Disneyland Main Street, USA Partners Thanks to perspective compression, the Main Street Train Station appears a short distance from Walt Disney and Mickey Mouse, and Carthay Circle Theatre looks like it's right behind the Train Station!
