Mural Wars!
The next article dealing with the New Tomorrowland of 1998 is going to be about the mural on the American Space Experience/Rocket Rods queue building. Let’s get to it:
Here’s the original mural that called this building home, one of the lovely works of Mary Blair
A look at the removal of the Mary Blair mural
And this is the 1998 mural, which surprisingly or not is my favorite!
The inscription bellow the mural reads: “BEYOND THE GREATEST STAR OF ALL LIES OUR FUTURE”
In preparation for Buzz Lightyear’s Astro Blasters in 2005, the mural was once again changed
I advise everyone to check out Yesterland‘s articles on both the 1998 Tomorrowland Mural, & the Mary Blair Murals. We won’t have an article on the New Tomorrowland tomorrow, but we will have this week’s podcast with tons of audio from the re-do. We’ll be back on Memorial Day with a look at Honey, I Shrunk the Audience!
