Indicated by the rough-cut edges all the way around, and the truncated drawings in the upper right and lower left (that one of some kind of wizard, waving a magic wand), this portrait was cut down to size at some point. I suspect it was taken at either Knott's Berry Farm or Disneyland, possibly the latter. We did go to Disneyland not too long after it opened in 1955. Whether the parents waited until 1956 or took us in 1955, I do not remember. However, I do know that we went there sometime not long after we moved to Whittier. And I also recall the crowds of people, especially around the Sleeping Beauty castle.

Georgann & Greg circa 1957
