standbyme Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 The 25th Anniversary...now we are approaching the 40th...time flys when you're having fun! I'm not a big fan of this cover...I think I know what the designer was going for, but to me this cover looks more like a swimming pool brochure than an amusement park brochure. I like this page a lot. Scooby Doo, Where Are You 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gad198 Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 The thing that caught my attention here was the Flight of Fear page. "Brace yourself" and seeing pictures of those nasty OTSRs summed up the ride at that time pretty well! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ohiocolts Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 I loved the FOF page, and the shot of the hangar. And the thrill rides page. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdawg1998 Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Why are the brochures so...boring now? The older ones had so much color and just looked..fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Web was little used. Social media was unheard of. TV was expensive. Brochures were a major marketing tool for the park, much more so than now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TombRaiderFTW Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 I don't know how I managed to miss this thread, but this is a huge blast from the past for me. The mid- to late 90's were when I first knew the park, so it's really cool seeing this time period... although, in pic #4, it looks like Scooby's got a pretty serious case of the derps.

garyh9900 Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 I really miss the KI and PKI of the 80's and 90's. It was such a different atmosphere than it is today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
