The History of Knott's Berry Farm - "Calico"

There was no more farming at Knott's Berry Farm by the early 1950's. What started as a few displays to entertain the guests waiting for chicken dinners had grown into a business all its own, with concessionaires running the different shops, rides, and attractions around the park. Knott's Berry Farm even welcomed celebrity guests, like Mr. Walt Disney. But Disney's visits weren't just for pleasure. He wanted his own park, and was studying what made other parks successful. When word got around that Disney's park was finally being built, everyone - including Walter Knott himself - worried it would put the Knott's Berry Farm out of business. We owe an enormous thanks to the Orange County Archives, holders of the Knott's Berry Farm historical collection. Without their generosity and friendly assistance, we would not have access to many of the incredible historic images and videos in this series. In particular, Chris Jepsen was of vital importance. He selected many of the images in this series based on our storytelling needs, and his keen eye for quality, yet-to-be-published images made this series infinitely better. All the images he selected - more than we could fit in these episodes - are freely available to the public on the OCA Flickr account. He also runs a delightful and insightful local history blog, which we highly recommend. Tell him Theme Parchive sent ya!
