~ Movieland Wax Museum ~

This great floor plan for the legendary Buena Park, California Museum is from sometime in the 1980's (past when the Palace of Living Arts was closed).

    I love this. I am a lifelong fan of Movieland, having visited over fifty times in the period between 1969 and 1982. I would love to have a copy of this to go with the rest of my memorabilia from the museum. When I was 14 years old (1978), I wanted to make a scale model of my beloved Movieland. I was going to buy a bunch of film for my Instamatic camera, take pictures, take notes, and see what I could do. The last, new, wax figure that I remember was Superman. I was surprised by some friends of the family, with a Trip to Movieland. I wasn't prepared, so, no model. Now that I'm older, and live in Oklahoma, I have made trips down to Louis Tussauds, in Grand Prairie, Texas. Not the same. Thank you for this. I wonder if any earlier floorplans exist?
