Thank you for posting those magical postcards from my postcard collection. The CNE was a dreamy place to go and at Christmas it looked so elegant, inviting & beautiful. As a kid, I can remember going to "Christmas Fairyland" with my Brownie Troop and meeting Uncle Bobby. I don't know how many years they hosted Christmas Fairyland, but I do remember going there and being so mesmerized by the coloured lights & the enchanment of the atmosphere.
On the CNE Archives Facebbok page, I posted 10 slides that were my taken my late father. You can see very clear images of the Alpine Way, the Grandstand, & the lovely CNE grounds. They were taken in 1968 & show a very different Toronto skyline (pre glassing & condo-ization!). It was my pleasure to donate the slides to the CNE archives so that other people will be albe to bask in their own memories of The Grand Old Lady.
Thank you so much Mustapha who is without a doubt, one of Urban Toronto's VIP's.
Peace & blessings to one and all.
