A Look Back: Main Street Electrical Parade

Vintage Poster for Disney's Main Street Electrical Parade.

Although the parade officially closes in the Magic Kingdom on October 9, Disney Parks featured a live stream over the weekend. After the parade closes, it will make the move to Disneyland, opening in 2017. To commemorate its return to Anaheim and its exit from Florida, let's take a walk down memory lane with Disney's Main Street Electrical Parade:

The Blue Fairy, the only 3D float when the parade originally opened in 1972 in Disneyland.
