Random Fact Of Kindness: For the first few years, the shops on Main Street were occupied by outside vendors who rented the space from Disney.
My husbands grandma use to make soapbars and sold them to the outside vendors at disneyland. - SerenaDufon

I think it is interesting that Main Street used to have a working Pharmacy. I wished it now had a bookstore, even if it was just kids books. - PrincessDuckie

The magic shop is one of them. and I think the other is the Jewelry store. - SuperCooper 818.1 #112 10:40PM
Arribas Brothers? (Is that the name... the crystal shop) - Mimmy 1405.6 #57 10:40PM
The magic shop? Aaaaand....Gibson Girl? - flukefan 266.4 #862 10:41PM
My guess is the Crystal store, (name escapes me) and Gibson Girl ice cream. - DisneyFanZoe 1097.6 #75 10:41PM
Crystal Shop - bugsmom1208 211.1 #1474 10:43PM
The heraldry shop and perfume shop? - princessVanessa 382.5 #353 10:45PM
You guys fail....Wrong land....One is in NOS - Dave 8657.9 #2 10:46PM
PV got them - Dave 8657.9 #2 10:46PM
Magic shop and the perfume place? - djbreakdown 567.0 #195 10:47PM
Sorry Dave, I guarantee you the Magic shop is an outside biz. I was just talking to them about it yesterday. - SuperCooper 818.1 #112 10:50PM
Well not everyone is a Disney expert like you, Dave! LOL - LaneSparrow316 846.9 #108 10:50PM
im not putting anybody down sparrow, just messing around, I don't remember hearing about the magic shop, thought it was just special training to work in that shop and that shop only...considering BBM is in stores im sure he is right - Dave 8657.9 #2 10:56PM
Oh I know! It's all good! 😄 - LaneSparrow316 846.9 #108 11:04PM
You ARE one of the resident experts, though. Us little people can't keep up. - LaneSparrow316 846.9 #108 11:05PM
Hello Dave, I have a question... Is all the land on Disneyland owned or is some of the land leased? I was told part of it was leased. Can you confirm? Thanks. - verofern 135.0 #2523 2:26AM
I'm pretty sure Gibson girl is an outside vender cuz one of the first times I went to get ice cream I gave them my ap and they said they don't do discounts cuz its an outside vender... - yvetteissogoofy 162.1 #2124 9:25AM
no gibson girl is not an outside company and I believe its Dryers ice cream...Use to be Carnation but changed years ago..some stuff is just not discounted like alcohol, dole whips and ice cream...and Disney owns all the land the park is on, not leased - Dave 8657.9 #2 9:41AM
The answer was the crystal shop in NOS and the magic shop. Every CM has to be trained by an outside company to work in both locations. Gibson Girl is owned by Disney. - BaseballMickey_CM 2862.5 #16 9:49AM
Oh I see.. Thanx for answering me :) - yvetteissogoofy 162.1 #2124 9:53AM
I did not know that...very cool fact, thank you - cdeley

BANKRUPT - Dave 8657.9 #2 10:46PM
Heh 😏 sad actually - cesium55 529.7 #217 11:02PM
they did not recognize the changing markets over the years and they were their worse enemy...they refused to change and when they did it was WAY to late - Dave 8657.9 #2 11:03PM
Kind of a shame but you're right. - LaneSparrow316 846.9 #108 11:06PM
Nice picture!! Thank you for sharing that fact!! - nikole31
