Today we have a collection of Home Videos from Disneyland in Anaheim, California. All of these videos were shot in 1956. The first video was shot by Jeff Altman's grandfather.
I implore you to watch the second video, if you have a half an hour to spare, as it a home video from a family that won a Scotch Tape contest. It's a little cheesy in parts but it is a great glimpse of 1956. The whole description is after the video (and after the jump).
In July 1956, the five-member Barstow family of Wethersfield, Connecticut, won a free trip to newly-opened Disneyland in Anaheim, California, in a nationwide contest. This 30-minute amateur documentary film tells the fabulous story of their fun-filled, dream-come-true, family travel adventure, filmed on the scene at Walt Disney's "Magic Kingdom" by Robbins Barstow.
