That dock in Tomorrowland was used for the Motor Boat Cruise? That explains it. I always thought it was kind of random just sitting there with no purpose. Some of that stuff I knew about but a lot of it I didn't. I've looked for the Eeyore sign but never found it.

Nice work!

Fun stuff!

Two quibbles, though...

The brass marker in the pavement at the back entrance to Sleeping Beauty Castle is not the center of Disneyland. It never was. It is simply a surveyer's marker, delineating the center line for Main Street and the hub.

The center of Disneyland in 1955 was slightly to the west of the center of the hub (where the Partners statue stands). Today the center is in the castle moat, slightly to the west of the drawbridge.

The other quibble is with the skull in the Pirate Captain's headboard. I am informed that there were real skulls and skeletons in the attraction in 1967. Over the years all have been replaced. I have never heard that any were a "gift" to Walt Disney.

Keep 'em coming!

The Eeyore parkinglot sign is behind a wooden gate/door( space thats boarded up) in the Indiana Jones que. You can see it through the slats of wood in the door if you peek in through there. It's been there for quite some time now. Not sure if they've moved it or not but I would imagine it's still there though. Next time I go and can remember, I'll take a picture of it and post it here.

The Eeyore sign is definitely still there. And, if you're willing to lose a few minutes in the line to sign it, just ask the cast member that's working the front of the projector room. They all carry maglights and will light it right up for you :D

Seriously? They let you sign it? It must be covered with autographs by now.
