Although you KNOW that youre just standing there looking, the figures are so real, you FEEL as though youre actually re-living their movie experiences, actually IN the scenes with the actors and actresses.

Of course, it helps to have a very vivid imagination not to mention an adept photographer, such as the Valley Times TODAYS Jeff Goldwater. But who knows, maybe you will experience these vicarious thrills when you visit this gorgeous new show-1 place of the Southland. Now open to the public, the new a museum (7711 Beach Blvd.) has become a permanent part of the recreation area that includes Disneyland, Knotts Berry Farm and Marineland. Fashioned by wax artisans In Hollywood, Hong Kong and Mexico at a cost of $2,500 each, the figures are elaborate settings and costumed to the "Nth degree. Many of the figures were clothed by Hollywoods own Western Costume "the last word" In costuming to many producers.

Tsf Bobby Rydell RHETT BUTLER and Beauregard Holland are having a tough time convincing Vivien Leigh that "th wahll be ovuh in two or three weeks, Scahlett, honey." It seema "Scahlett honey" read the book. Juit in case you have trouble recognizing Clark Gable and Miss Leigh when you visit the museum, the museum people have placed a giant wind machine Just to the left of this "Gone With The Wind" scene.

Their assumption, apparently, is that if the wind machine were turned on, it would blow the figures away and they would be well, you know. In Pictures ren 5 I I DAVE HOLLAND.
