In July 1956, the five-member Barstow family of Wethersfield, Connecticut, won a free trip to newly-opened Disneyland in Anaheim, California, in a nationwide contest. This 30-minute amateur documentary film tells the fabulous story of their fun-filled, dream-come-true, family travel adventure, filmed on the scene at Walt Disney's "Magic Kingdom" by Robbins Barstow.

I loved, loved LOVED that! It is so rich in historical detail. It was amazing to watch their family trip to Disneyland as it was 50 years ago. You can just tell that the magic is universal and unwavering.
