![]() ![]() Holidayland had a brief life, disappearing completely and without a trace. Ultimately, no one wanted to visit a tacky circus outside the park when the attractions inside were so compelling. Fortunately his imagineers couldn’t find room for it within the park itself and it was placed outside the berm surrounding Disneyland park. Walt was convinced that a circus attraction would be well received. Not every idea that Walt Disney had was a winner. Attractions that did not make it, at least at Disneyland, were: Edison Square, Liberty Street, Adventures in Science, the Wax Museum, and the Thieves Market, although components of Edison Square and Liberty Street found their way into Library Square at the Magic Kingdom in Walt Disney World. Note that on this map New Orleans Square was in fact a square instead of the eventual streets and alleys, and that the Haunted Mansion is located across from where it would eventually appear. Examples of attractions that made it are: the Submarine Voyage, New Orleans Square, and the Haunted Mansion. ![]() Walt Disney had infinite confidence in his new park and unapologetically included future attractions and “lands” as if they were just around the corner.In this map the river is green, whereas in the next two the river is blue. The last difference between this map and the next two is in the color of the Jungle Cruise river.The Junior Autopia which is found to the right of the Viewliner in Tomorrowland is also unique to this map.This is the only map in the series with the Viewliner, and uniquely identifies this map. The real tell-tale sign for this map is the existence of the Viewliner in Tomorrowland, with tracks running over and around what would eventually become the submarine lagoon.Note that both of these attributes are shared with the other two maps with the 1958 copyright date. The second differentiating feature is the border, which on this map is orange.The first thing to look for is the copyright date of “1958” found in the lower right-hand corner inside of the orange border. ![]()
