Historic Disneyland Memorabilia from Saturday's Toys presents...
a unique Disneyland postcard containing a seldom seen cancellation from the Ghost Town Post Office at Knott's Berry Farm in Buena Park, California.
The postcard features the Casey Jr. Circus Train railroad in Fantasyland as it passes the landscaped patchwork quilt."  The Casey Jr. was a featured character in Walt Disney's "Dumbo" (1941).
After visiting Disneyland, Patricia Bradac mailed this souvenir postcard on Friday, August 18, 1961 from the Ghost Town Rural Station located within Knott's Berry Farm's Ghost Town.  The card was stamped again on Monday, August 21, 1961 when it was received in Riverside, California prior to delivery to Rhoda Robinson.
The Knott's Berry Farm Post Office was an officially designated station of the United States Post Office from 1951 - 1963.  While the post office building survives, they no longer provide a Knott's Berry Farm postmark for outgoing mail.
