Shaggy Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 I thought many here would like to see a rare KI memento that I recently added to my collection. This is a carved marble slab mounted on a framed backing with a brass plate inscription. It was presented following the 1981 season - and it features the (then) new "The Bat" as part of the collage of KI images. From what I have learned, this was presented to a former Full-Time KECO/Kings Island staff member. Its quite a piece! If anyone has anymore info about this, please share! 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pagoda Gift Shop Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Was 1981 a really good year? Apparently? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The record was not surpassed until 1984, which saw over three million people. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheBEASTunchained Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 Have had information passed along to me about this piece years ago. Can’t remember much though. If I recall correctly, someone else on this site actually managed to get ahold of one of these many years ago and also had a story to go with it. Finding that thread could be a shot in the dark, as it may have been tucked into another thread and not in its own. Great to see another one of these floating around!
