My friend the packrat found this and gave it to me

Cool, huh?

I like on the inside they advertise as "BRAND NEW!"

"I dare you to experience the adventures of The Greedy Brothers Water Excursion!" WITHOUT a picture of the ride! Just a pic of some dirthead w/ a smirk on his face.

Those were the days - pre-shootout!

Very cool!

That is very cool indeed.
Interestingly SDC TN and SDC Branson used to trade off pictures of their rides for
advertising, If I am not mistaken this is SDC TN Flooded Mine and not SDC Branson.
If you look at the track above and the miner in the metal container I dont think they are from SDC Branson.
Anyone else have any info or input on this?

Should I just scan the whole thing?

^^I could see that as being true. I wondered.

Yes, That is the flooded mine from Silver Dollar City TN/ Dollywood. When that ride closed, alot of the props were moved into the Blazing Fury.

I almost put the info about SDC Tenn as well. I checked my '84 brochure and in fact it is different from the Branson flooded mine

If i am not mistaken SDC used to also use pictures from the Blazing Fury to stand in as FITH. Specifically the cars on the drop, it was a photo of red cars with the water splash and such. I understood that was Blazing Fury.
