During the first year of operation at Disneyland in 1955, there were approximately 65 different postcards sold. Featured here, are those very same postcards (most of them, at least).

The first were the "pre-opening" postcards (22 of them sold), which were reproductions of actual paintings that the artists created about a year before Disneyland opened (since the park was brand new, actual photo postcards would come later).

 

Known as the very first postcard produced, and was sold with the "pre-opening" postcards, below.

Here, we have the very first photographic postcards produced and sold in the park (43 sold, 40 of them here), all showing scenes from 1955. Referred to as the "P-Series," they were published in "Plastichrome" by the Colourpicture Corporation. I have sorted them by land, to show all of the different areas and their attractions at once.
