EVEN MO' FREEDOMLAND GOODNESS!

Here's a couple more for ya.....

Civil War from the fake, New Orleans Square, Freedomland, USA.



And from Freedomland's psudo Main Street , Santa Fe Railroad Depot.

Something about these posters really bring the Freedomland Park alive to me. They represent the whole tone of that park. Not necessarily bad, not necessarily good. Just.....well, a decently soul-less replication of Disneyland done with the best intentions.

Man these posters are weird - mediocre, yet fascinating in a weird way - not unlike the few P.O.P. posters out there...

yeah. when i first found them, i thought how amateurish they were in comparison to the disneyland posters.

but then you think about how rare they are and what they represent...a park that lived and died in a four year lifespan, they take on a neat charm.

i know a few heavy Freedomland collectors, and they had never seen any of these before.

POP posters would be a treat to see.

I'm happy that you are posting again...maybe you can give yourself a more reasonable schedule. Twice a week is better than nothin'!

THANKS for the opportunity to see these posters! I am a Disneyland attraction poster fanatic. Can you please tell me if the Freedomland posters are as large as the DL posters? They look like the could be a bit smaller.
