Untitled Document IF your interests include the history of Disneyland, Walt Disney's first Magic Kingdom, this is the publication for you! Each issue, a senior Disney artist or Imagineer shares experiences, artwork, and photographs. Facts and photos of the first Imagineer, Walt Disney, are always included. Favorite rides and attractions (some no longer around) are described and illustrated in every issue. Each time, Disney Theme Parks are explored with maps, drawings, often more than 50 rare photographs.
The "E" Ticket Magazine features interviews with the Artists, Imagineers and other creative individuals who helped design and build Disneyland. Also contained in these thrice-yearly issues are rare reviews of Disneyland and researched histories of the construction of favorite Attractions, some of which are now gone.

Issue #34 Submarine Voyage
Table of contents:
* The Submarine Voyage was Tomorrowlands version of the narrated excursion ride (like the Mine Train and Jungle Cruise) and since 1959 kids of all ages have leaned into their portholes and peered through crystal depths as their Captain described Disneys discoveries beneath the surface of the sea.
* Master of effects Yale Gracey retired from Walt Disney Imagineering over 25 years ago, but for those who study theme park history, his name is as important as ever. Without his illusions and special effects, successful Disney attractions like Pirates of the Caribbean and Haunted Mansion would have had a reduced impact on the audience. We learned of Graceys accomplishments when talking with Imagineers who worked with him in the 1950s and 60s. Information on his career has proven difficult to obtain, but with the help of his friends we have assembled some memories and fascinating photos of this unique Disney artist.
* Walt Disneys Autograph is an enjoyable look at some desirable Disney items written by our friend (and autograph expert) Phil Sears. His description of this focused and valuable category of Disneyana may inspire some of you to take another look at your collecting priorities. Take a look at Phil Sears website.
* Wings over Disneyland an aerial photo shows the brand new Submarine Voyage at the center of an expanded 1959 Tomorrowland.
