Check out today's Al's Update for a photo essay on how it's a small world originally looked.

OMG, THE COLORS!!!!


Wow, I don't recall EVER seeing the attraction look that vibrant. Perhaps it's even a little too tacky ... but if that was the original Mary Blair color design, I want it back.


Maybe things were toned down when it moved to Disneyland. Or maybe years of decreptitude have simply dulled things down to a bland shadow of the former glory.

I think that in addition to natural color fading of the attraction itself over the years, there is also an issue of the color in the photos themselves not being accurate. Color film technology was still in its (relative) infancy in the early to mid sixties.

Even looking at the blue in Walt's sweater, I feel that the color represented is not natural.

Nice picture of Rolly Crump. I'd forgotten how hot he was!

It's A Small World was more vibrant (and more condensed) when it was @ the New York's World Fair.
The dolls were more animated as well.


I hate it when Disney decides to do things like add dolls dressed like cartoon characters cause it cheats the younger audience of the experience we've had. To me, adding Peter Pan to It's A Small World is like giving the Mona Lisa highlights in her hair.
