54 Rarely Seen Epcot Construction and Opening Day Photos

By Keith Mahne




Looking at vintage photos of Walt Disney World is one of my favorite things to do, especially of Epcot. With that in mind, and for your viewing pleasure, I have compiled 54 rarely seen Epcot construction and opening day photos that I think you'll really enjoy. For all you original EPCOT Center lovers out there, this article is for you. Continue after the page break and enjoy...

(If you are viewing this article from a desktop computer and you want to really set the mood, choose either the Horizons Exit Music Loop or the Epcot Entrance Music Loop from the Disney Avenue Music Player playlist in the top right corner of this page.)






















 





































I hope you enjoyed today's article. For more concept drawings, info and fantastic photos of early EPCOT history, I highly suggest you immediately get yourself a copy of the amazingly detailed book titled "Walt Disney's EPCOT...Creating the New World of Tomorrow" by Richard Beard. Check out the amazon link below for a copy.
