Let’s stay on Colossus, but stray over to signage. Magic Mountain was never sponsor-adverse (who can forget the super sticky days of New York Seltzer sponsoring Colossus?), but some of the sponsor choices were…odd? Stridex? Because the rides are mostly run by pimple-faced teens? Sure, whatever.

In August of 1995, I took a bunch of photos (on film no less) at Six Flags Magic Mountain using an inexpensive camera. I was working as an Operations supervisor at the time, and the purpose of the project was to create a slide show for an employee appreciation party for our Operations staff. I’ve carted these slides around for over 25 years and I finally had them digitally transferred this year. About 2/3s of them aren’t available for posting because they are crew pictures and I have no way to request permission to post them. But I do have 50+ available that are just various shots of the park. Enjoy this time capsule from August 1995.
