Are You A Map Lover? What about Theme Parks?

This is one of those “only on the Internet” sites.  Accept that there’s no understanding it, and admire the weirdness and wonder of it.  Themeparkbrochures.net is a Theme Park map and brochure collector’s dream.  They have about 300 maps from parks all over the world, some going back as far as 1931.

See how Disney has changed over the decades, check out Sea World, Dorney Park, Busch Gardens, Six Flags, Alton Towers and VisionLand – all from colorfully illustrated aerial views!   They have a lot of brochures, but I think the genius of this site is in its MAPS.
