Pretty much sums up how I feel! LA Times new article which highlighted the sale of Six Flags, Inc. to Wesray Capital, 1986. This snippet was about Magic Mountain.

Howdy Friends, I apologize for the quality of the pic, but yes…one of the first pictures pulled from my collection was this one. A rare site indeed. I was fortunate to have ridden both Batman and Robin during its reign at Great Adventure. In fact, we even had the opportunity to ride both tracks during its all to brief “opening season” - which consisted of two days, a Saturday and Sunday (if I recall correctly). Enjoy the pic. Please do not reproduce without my approval. Thank you! CJM

Greetings Friends, Believe it or not, @ 43 years old, I finally become an official member of the themeparkreview.com. To say the least… I’m quite excited about the prospect of sharing all of my Park/Coaster/Industry memorabilia; we’re talking close to 35 years worth of STUFF. everything from Maps, to roller coaster! Magazines, inside track magazines, ACE newsletters, press, releases, and, of course… Photos. Lots of photos. As you can tell, I more or less rediscovered the collection myself only recently. In doing so, it had never dawned on me just how much I managed to collect over the years. Until now. Courtesy of the pandemic, I feel that we are now living in a sort of parallel universe; where anything and everything is possible. Some of it good, some of it not so good. Progress winds change, right? That’s my rant… I apologize… In my own rediscovery of this collection of memorabilia has opened my eyes up to a whole new world of possibilities that I can’t say I’m all that thrilled about. But nevertheless, I also discovered that I do not have my 1992 souvenir map of Six Flags over Mid America, known today as Six Flags St. Louis. Clear protective sleeve is empty. So, if anyone has a spare or is willing to sell the one they have… Please contact me. Again, my apologies for going off track. To make this post a little bit more worthwhile I’ve attached a few of the newspaper articles I meant years about various ride additions/removals. Enjoy!
