Spectacular footage of Disneyland 1955

DisneyHistory has edited together scraps of found home movies from Disneyland in 1955, its opening year, harvesting only the sharpest, clearest shots highlighting the rarest and least-seen elements. The result is one of the most vivid views of that year I've ever seen. There's also a list of spot-the-rara-avis moments from the footage, including the "Closed Mondays" sign, the lingerie shop on Main Street; a performing organ grinder's monkey and Canal Boats of the World ("in which guests floated past dirt").
