ORIGINAL cartoon park map

As one of the original employees from April 1972, I still have my first year souvenir cartoon map of the park that you see on the internet.  But there was one that was published BEFORE the park ever opened.  A college buddy who had worked at Coney in 1970 and 1971 had one, and how I wish I had it today.  I can't remember many things that changed before the park opened, but I do remember that the canoe pond extended behind the water tower and the train crossed it on a curved trestle.  I also remember that the train shed was in the picnic grounds next to the log flume instead of inside the railroad loop as it is today.  If anyone ever sees one of those maps, GRAB IT!!! and share it with the rest of us.  It is perhaps the rarest of the rare among "Kings Mills Project" souvenirs.  I bet they didn't print very many of them.
