Produktbeschreibung
"From its beginnings, Disneyland was destined to be something entirely different from the standard mid-century amusement park. To sell his dream park to skeptical investors, Walt Disney recruited Hollywood art directors and sketch artists to design the grounds around the mythic settings and high-minded ideals commonly expressed on the silver screen. This book focuses on the initial planning of Disneyland and its first year of operation, a time when Walt personally oversaw almost every detail of the park's development. Divided into chapters by park zone, it reveals how the five sectors were constructed using illusionistic tricks of stage design. Reaching beyond structure and design, chapters also explore how the sectors-Main Street U.S.A., Frontierland, Tomorrowland, Adventureland and Fantasyland-represented themes found in Disney stories, familiar movie genres and American culture at large."--
