Kings Island Souvenir Booklet 1979

Here's a little more Kings Island stuff to celebrate the parks 40th anniversary.  It's a full-color souvenir booklet from 1979...


The page above should have won some sort of special proofreading award. Check out the animals pictured at the bottom of the page and the corresponding labels.


Since the "Happy Land of Hanna-Barbera" is no longer a part of Kings Island I thought it might be good to post extra big photos from this page.


This spining ride is called the "Witches Cauldron" and features a figure of Winsome Witch rotating on top of a spooky tree. I wish there was a shot of her face, or the other creatures on the big fake tree.


Enchanted Voyage was a fairly elaberate dark ride into the world of Hanna-Barbera cartoons.  Although mostly the more obscure ones - no Flintstones, Jetsons, Yogi and Boo-Boo or Scooby-Doo here. 


Let's grab a snack at Gulliver's Galley.  The Adventures of Gulliver was a cartoon created in 1968 for ABC-TV.  Only 17 episodes were produced, yet Gulliver was featured prominently in the Enchanted Voyage ride, had a small boat ride named Gulliver's Rub-A-Dub, and this snack bar.
